There is no time to waste at Milan. After Sunday’s important and convincing win over Verona, the focus immediately shifts to preparing for, and winning, the delicate away trip to Cagliari scheduled for Friday 2 January.
In fact, head coach Massimiliano Allegri would obviously like to fly to Sardinia with a full squad, but as has been the case since the start of the season, the Rossoneri head coach has to deal with several absences, two of them particularly significant.
Looking ahead to Friday’s trip to Sardinia, Corriere dello Sport ran the headline this morning: "Leao and Gabbia out", explaining that the Portuguese forward, although he has recovered from his adductor problem, still feels discomfort as soon as he tries to make a sharp sprint. While two players remain in doubt, there is also positive news, as "Fullkrug could make his debut", which is a timely option who could prove immediately useful.
