In this morning's print edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport there was talking about Paulo Fonseca recovering two useful players for the depth. We are talking about English midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek worked separately but is expected to return to group training this afternoon.
After recovering from a bothersome issue with his right thigh hamstring, he may be called up for the match the day after tomorrow. In addition to that, Samuel Chukwueze is now also fit again and available.
After getting injured while with the Nigeria national team, there were fears he had sustained a thigh injury. It turns out to be just fatigue for the former Villarreal player, however, who already participated in part of yesterday's training session with his teammates under the guidance of head coach Paulo Fonseca, so his presence in Milan - Udinese (at least on the bench) is practically certain.
Milan's left-back, Theo Hernández, will be absent due to suspension, and Fonseca will need to decide how to replace him for the Udinese fixture.
The options on the table include Filippo Terracciano, Álex Jiménez, or even Strahinja Pavlović. Up front, Tammy Abraham may start on the bench, with Noah Okafor potentially starting in his place, as relayed via Pianeta Milan.
