Pierre Kalulu is harbouring some hope of being back in time for the first Champions League match against Napoli although the second is more likely, a report claims.
As has been reported by Calciomercato.com, the French defender is being evaluated constantly by the staff at Milanello and they are confident he will be back in action fairly soon.

The squad did a de-fatiguing workout after the game against Napoli to try and stop any other muscular issues creeping in. There is a hope to have Kalulu back for the first leg at San Siro on April 12, but the second leg a week later is more likely of a return date.
As has been demonstrated by the injury to Mike Maignan and the recovery time that it took, they need to ensure they do not rush Kalulu and risk him missing even more of the campaign considering he tends to start every game when fit.
