The only unavailable player in the Rossoneri squad due to injury is Brazilian right-back Emerson Royal, who joined last summer from Tottenham Hotspur for 15 million euros.
The former Barcelona player has not met expectations or earned the club's trust, and before the injury he sustained early in the game against Girona in the Champions League, the club seemed intent on loaning him to Galatasaray in the Turkish league. The physical problem put everything on hold.

Yesterday, Emerson Royal's father assured, in an interview, that his son is ready to return stronger than before, and that the interest from the Turkish club in January should be considered merely a market rumor.
This morning, however, Tuttosport pointed out that Royal's future at Milan could be hanging by a thread, especially with the Rossoneri planning to redeem Walker and renew Florenzi's contract, two older players who have proven to be more reliable. There is interest in the Brazilian from several clubs, including Galatasaray.
