After the injury sustained yesterday against Hellas Verona, which forced him to leave the pitch during the first half, Rafael Leao underwent medical tests that revealed a strain in his left flexor muscle.
A follow-up MRI will be conducted in a week to assess the progress of the Portuguese forward’s muscle recovery.
When could Rafael Leao return?
Everything will depend on the results of next week’s check-up. Even if the MRI provides positive news, the Portuguese player will definitely miss the December 29 match against Roma at San Siro.
Therefore, the targeted return date is the Supercoppa Italiana semifinal against Juventus, scheduled for January 3 in Saudi Arabia, as pointed out by Milannews.it.
