Against Cremonese, Bartesaghi succumbed to an injury at the late stages of the game, without receiving any contact. These injuries are always ones to fear, just because of the risk of a muscle injury.
Indeed, it seemed that way, too, with the Italian, clutching his leg and wearing a brace, or something of that ilk, after the game. So, tests were needed to see the extent of any injury. Now, those results have been reported.
Bartesaghi update
As MilanNews writes, there is no need to worry massively, as a longer-term injury has been ruled out. After an instrumental examination this morning, the findings showed nothing to be concerned about. However, he is not a certainty for the weekend.
Of course, Massimiliano Allegri will now be faced with a big decision, and it will depend on the training sessions this week. Given the derby is scheduled for Sunday, it is only a good thing that the team will have several days to train. Imaginably, if the Italian is present with the group at any point, he will be a starter once again.
