Tomorrow evening against Torino, in the late match of the 14th round of Serie A, Massimiliano Allegri will be without Youssouf Fofana in midfield, the player stopped a few days ago due to a muscle issue. After missing the Coppa Italia match against Lazio, the Frenchman will also miss the trip to the Granata’s home, where Milan have won once in their last twelve matches played in Turin.
Who replaces Fofana in Milan's lineup vs Torino?
According to Tuttosport, the choice is between Samuele Ricci and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, with Ricci slightly ahead to start on the right side of midfield next to Luka Modric and Adrien Rabiot. Compared to Thursday’s Coppa Italia match, Matteo Gabbia will return to the center of defense, and Davide Bartesghi will reclaim the left wingback role, sending Pervis Estupiñán to the bench.
There is also a change in attack, where for only the second time this league season Allegri will be able to field his first-choice pair, Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic. The two played together in the derby, then the American stopped due to muscle fatigue, which made him miss the league match against Lazio. In the Coppa Italia match against Lazio he entered only in the final minutes.
