Sky: Milan midfielder a doubt for Monza clash through illness

AC Milan midfielder Ismael Bennacer could be set to miss the match against Monza on Saturday as he has developed a fever, a report claims.

He did not take part in the final training session on Friday afternoon at Milanello and he is set to be re-evaluated on Saturday morning.

If he is deemed unable to play or Milan decide not to take any risks, then Sandro Tonali is expected to come into the midfield to play alongside Tommaso Pobega in the double pivot.

Tonali had been set to enjoy a rest whilst Pobega got some more first team minutes but the possible absence of the Algerian midfielder means he is likely to be called upon.
