The Rossoneri afternoon was overshadowed by Niclas Füllkrug’s injury. The German striker, who joined Milan in the current winter transfer window, suffered a fracture to a phalanx in one of his toes during the match against Fiorentina, caused by direct trauma. Officially, Milan’s medical staff reported a fracture of the toe phalanx, which was immediately reduced in Florence by the club’s medical team.
That prompt intervention helped limit the damage. According to what MilanNews.it has learned, the recovery time is estimated at around two weeks. This means Füllkrug will definitely be unavailable for the match in Como the day after tomorrow, while his presence against Lecce at San Siro on Sunday night remains unlikely.
The first possible return date could be the big match on January 25 at the Olimpico against Roma. It will not be easy, but this appears to be the initial target. The situation will be monitored day by day.
