AC Milan failed to clinch a win before the international break and only came away with one point from their game against Lecce. In need of rest, the Rossoneri players have been given three days off by Stefano Pioli.

It was another disappointing second-half performance from Pioli’s men, who squandered what looked like a comfortable 2-0 lead. As a result, Milan have claimed just two points in their last four leagues, which is simply unacceptable.
According to MilanNews, Pioli has decided to give the players three days of rest. That was always going to be the case, regardless of the result, as the international break is underway. There’s no need for the player to start earlier than that, with the Fiorentina clash scheduled two weeks from now.
Davide Calabria and Rafael Leao are called up for international duty but will remain at Milanello during the break. The former is suffering from an overload in his left thigh, while the winger has sustained a first-degree hamstring injury (read more here).
The hope is that Leao will be back for the crucial clash against Borussia Dortmund on November 28. After the win against PSG, a win against the German side would put the Rossoneri in a very good position.
