In this 'tour de force' where Milan will face several top sides, after Napoli at San Siro and Juventus at the Stadium, Massimiliano Allegri’s team will play Fiorentina at the Meazza after the international break, a match scheduled for Sunday, October 19, at 20:45.
Fiorentina's Lamptey out long-term
For the clash between the Rossoneri and the Viola, Tariq Lamptey will be unavailable for Stefano Pioli. The Ghanaian defender, who was injured in the last Serie A match against Como, suffered a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. A serious injury that will keep him out for a long time and will certainly rule him out of the match against Milan in mid-October.
Lamptey injury, Fiorentina’s statement:
“ACF Fiorentina announces that starting Monday, September 22, player Tariq Lamptey underwent a series of clinical and instrumental tests, both static and dynamic, to assess the injury sustained during the Fiorentina – Como match on Sunday, September 21. Given the complex clinical picture, a diagnostic arthroscopy was carried out this morning by Prof. Mariani. The procedure revealed an isolated tear of the anterior cruciate ligament in the left knee. The type of injury required reconstructive surgery on the ACL, which was successfully completed. In the coming hours, the player will return to Florence to begin the planned rehabilitation process.”
