AC Milan will face Hellas Verona tomorrow afternoon, with Davide Calabria and Mike Maignan to undergo evaluation during today’s training session. While there’s hope for their participation, it’s uncertain at this point.
Following their early exits due to heavy challenges in the mid-week clash against Slavia Praha, both Davide Calabria and Mike Maignan will undergo evaluation during today’s training session.
Calabria’s injury was particularly severe, resulting in a red card for the Czech side and leaving the captain in considerable pain. As reported by Tuttosport, cited by MilanNews, Stefano Pioli will make a decision on their availability for the upcoming game based on their fitness tests this afternoon, although contingency plans have already been made.
In the absence of Maignan, Marco Sportiello stepped in as goalkeeper during the Slavia Praha match, while Pierre Kalulu replaced Calabria. However, with Alessandro Florenzi’s return from suspension, he is the frontrunner to take over the captain’s role if Calabria is unable to recover in time.
With an international break looming next week, Pioli is expected to field the strongest possible lineup tomorrow to capitalize on their recent momentum. Following their reclamation of second place last week, Milan will aim to maintain their position, likely requiring a victory to do so.
