Jovic sustains injury while warming up during PSG-Milan – the latest

By Oliver Fisher -

A bad night for AC Milan has gotten even worse as Luka Jovic suffered an injury during warm-ups before the game against Paris Saint-Germain.

There were several absences for Stefano Pioli to deal with this evening, especially in the forward department. Noah Okafor and Samuel Chukwueze were out injured, while Luka Romero was not included in the UEFA squad list.

Rafael Leao, Olivier Giroud and Christian Pulisic started as the attacking trio and there was only Jovic and Chaka Traore who could come on to provide some respite, but in the end even the Serbian wasn’t available.

MilanNews writes that according to what was reported by Alessandro Alciato – Amazon Prime Video’s correspondent at the Parc des Princes – Jovic was injured during the warm-up on the sidelines during PSG-Milan.

He was seen grabbing his thigh and expressing discomfort, and he thus returned to the changing rooms meaning he was not available to come on.

    1. Same thing I said. Those physios have to go. It was PSG pitches this time..can’t blame the ol turf-grass mix at Milanello.

      1. I’m absolutely flabbergasted by how their position was never put into question despite 4 seasons where we always suffer from injuries, even with players who didn’t have a big injury record before.
        Like we supposedly have options in attack now, yet ended up with no subs yesterday ????
        Cardinale was happy to sack Maldini, but not the physios ?

  1. Guess what – when we needed a goal and there’s only 1 attacker on the bench – who does Pioli bring on? Pobega – a master stroke

    1. do you have brain damage? Taremi’s agents made that deal too complicated and they lied about accepting the offer we gave them

  2. Giroud was awful as he has been for several months in front of goal & if Jovic was injured, Pioli could have atleast given Traore his debut instead of allowing Giroud play 90mins with nothing to offer.
    This brings us again to Pioli killing young talents in the squad. He’s the only coach in history of Milan for over 3 years that has refused to give opportunity to the youth team players.
    PSG midfield had 17 years old running cycles around krunic
