On the eve of Napoli - Milan, there was talk of a Ruben Loftus-Cheek starting in the two-man midfield alongside Warren Bondo. The Englishman, in the end, was not even called up for the match at the Diego Armando Maradona due to an acute appendicitis that struck him during the night of Saturday evening.
The English midfielder was subsequently operated on in Naples, and as reported by Milannews.it, the Chelsea ex player was able to return to the city in these hours. This evening, in fact, he will be present at San Siro to watch the first leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal between Milan and Inter.
What are Ruben Loftus-Cheek's numbers this season?
