After the 3-2 friendly defeat against Virtus Entella on Friday, Massimiliano Allegri gave his squad three days of rest. The team meets again tomorrow afternoon at Milanello to start preparing for the derby against Inter scheduled for next Sunday. The first international players return to Carnago tomorrow, and the staff expects key updates on the conditions of Adrien Rabiot and Santiago Gimenez.
Has Adrien Rabiot recovered from injury?
According to Tuttosport, the French midfielder, who suffered a soleus injury with France during the October break, feels better and should return to group training tomorrow (November 18, 2025). His absence in midfield hit the team in recent weeks, so he will be called up for the match against Inter and aims to start. Allegri expects to recover Santiago Gimenez as well, as the striker is close to clearing the ankle issue that has bothered him for a long time.
The internationals return. Tomorrow Milanello welcomes the first players coming back from national duty. Gabbia, Ricci, Maignan, Nkunku, Leao and Pavlovic are expected in Carnago. Modric and Odogu resume training on Wednesday. Bartesaghi, Saelemaekers, De Winter and Athekame return on Thursday. From that day the group will be complete and derby preparation will start in full, as relayed via Milan News today.
