As reported by Mediaset (via MilanNews.it), the manager has narrowed it down to two players: Leao or Rebic. The two will battle it out for the Turk’s spot in the line-up and a decision will most likely be taken on Saturday morning.

Whoever gets the spot will complete the trident up front with Piatek and Suso, per the report. Hopefully, the Rossoneri can grab the win this time out, failing to do so against Juventus despite a good performance.
