Being injury-free did not last long for AC Milan, and Sergio Conceicao will be without five players for Friday night’s game against Bologna.
Milan resumed training at Milanello today in preparation for tomorrow night’s Serie A match against Bologna at San Siro, a match that matters more for the visitors who are still fighting to reach the Champions League.

The Rossoneri’s minds are already focused on next Wednesday’s Coppa Italia final, and this is expected to be reflected in Conceiçao team selection, with some big changes planned to freshen things up.
However, as Sky (via MilanNews) report this afternoon, his attempts to rotate effectively are not helped by the list of absences, starting with Rafael Leao who got a yellow card in the win over Genoa and must serve a suspension.
Youssouf Fofana will be preserved for the final, while Riccardo Sottil and Warren Bondo still have some discomfort too. Emerson Royal has just returned to full training after a long injury and is therefore still far from his best form, so he will not be available.
All the other players will be available, and Francesco Camarda will also be part of the list of players called up given he cannot feature for Milan Futuro. It remains to be seen what the team will be, but Sky also predict ‘a few changes’.
Strat camarda
Was Emerson Royal ever at his best form…..🤔
Throw in a few Italian kids, please.
I think that was his best form🤔
Key players? Sottil, Royal, and Bondo aren’t exactly important. In fact none has started in recent memory.
Can milan qualify for europa if bologna qualify for ucl and still win the coppa ? I can recall something like this happening years ago,not sure if it was milan.
No
It goes to the league position 5&6
if Milan win out and other teams drop points we can get 6
We won’t get 6th — that would mean leaping over 3 teams, not going to happen. 8th is doable with two wins out of three, and should be the goal, just so we don’t have to play Coppa Italia in the summer.
Even if crazy were to happen and we won out and everybody else loses, 6th is Conference League, not Europa. Win Coppa final and it’s as good as finishing 5th. That’s the goal.
that guy should be sold since walker will be starting from next season
no point in having royal sell him in the summer
