Today’s edition of il Corriere dello Sport (via MilanLive) takes stock of the injury situation at Milan, confirming that Ismael Bennacer and Hakan Calhanoglu – who have been training in the group – will soon be ready to return to action soon and be part of the starting line-up.
Not only that, but Spanish playmaker Brahim Diaz will also be back with the group soon, the paper claims. The 21-year-old has overcome his muscular problems and should therefore should be called up for Sunday’s match against Crotone.
Simon Kjaer will have a new check-up during the week to evaluate his recovery times after sustaining another thigh muscle problem, and he will join fellow centre-back Matteo Gabbia in the treatment room for the time being, it is anticipated.
