AC Milan, after three days of rest, has gathered to prepare for the Trofeo Silvio Berlusconi scheduled for Tuesday at San Siro against Monza. This is the last friendly match to experiment with something new: Serie A starts for the Rossoneri on August 17 at San Siro against Torino.
Il Corriere dello Sport newspaper discusses the probable Rossoneri lineup for Milan-Monza.
Fonseca, it is reported, will likely use the 4-2-3-1 formation that performed well in the United States with victories against Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Barcelona. Mike Maignan will be in goal. Theo Hernandez will be included. In defence, Tomori and Gabbia will be the central defenders, with Calabria on the right.
There are doubts in midfield: Bennacer, Reijnders, and Loftus-Cheek are competing for two spots. Up front? Morata is expected to start from the bench. Fonseca is likely to stick with the heavy trio behind Jovic: Chukwueze, Pulisic, and Leao. Here is the probable Rossoneri lineup for Milan-Monza.
Milan's probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Gabbia, Tomori, Theo Hernandez; Bennacer, Reijnders; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Leao; Jovic.
