At 1pm Italian time today, at Optus Stadium in Perth, Western Australia, the Derby between Milan and Inter will take place. This summer friendly Derby returns in this format after 11 years. For the Rossoneri, it is only their second pre-season fixture of this offseason, following their 2-2 comeback draw away against Celtic in Glasgow. For the Nerazzurri, however, it is already their fourth match, after a convincing win against German amateur opposition, a more hard-fought victory against Karlsruhe, and a penalty shootout win over Manchester City. For Milan today, Leao returns...
During his seven years at Milan, Portuguese winger Rafael Leao has managed to hurt Inter on several occasions, especially during the Scudetto-winning season and the following campaign. Today, Ruben Amorim will also be able to count on him, as reported by Il Giornale:
"The Derby is already here: Leao returns against Inter."
The number 10 returned to the squad on 29 July as planned, alongside his compatriot Gonçalo Ramos. Today, both players are ready to start from the first minute.
