Stefano Pioli has some selection concerns as the entire team returned to training a
t Milanello yesterday in preparation for the match against Juventus on Sunday night.
As the match approaches, the current issue of Tuttosport (via PianetaMilan) assesses the situation at Milan, beginning with the fact that Christian Pulisic, Yunus Musah, and Malick Thiaw resumed practicing with the team yesterday.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek should be replaced by Musah because his physical state is still not fully recovered. He participated in the first portion of the workout with the squad and the second portion on his own.ench.
Rade Krunic and Pierre Kalulu have also raised the level of their fitness further, and so, like Loftus-Cheek, they are heading towards a call-up, but they should also start from the bench.
The paper reports that Yacine Adli should be the regista, with Tijjani Reijnders and Musah on either side. In defense, a battle could open between Malick Thiaw and Simon Kjaer to be Fikayo Tomori’s partners.
Theo Hernandez is suspended, so Davide Calabria and Alessandro Florenzi will be the full-backs, while the now standard front three will be deployed.
Probable Milan XI (4-3-3): Mirante; Calabria, Thiaw, Tomori, Florenzi; Musah, Adli, Reijnders: Pulisic, Giroud, Leao. Coach: Stefano Pioli.
