The week has not started well for AC Milan in terms of preparing for the second game of the season against Parma on Saturday, as Alvaro Morata will miss around three weeks with a muscle issue.
According to various reports, Morata will miss the next two league games against Parma and Lazio and will not be available for Spain, who play Serbia and Switzerland in the UEFA Nations League during the next break after sustaining a muscle problem.
MilanNews naturally ask the question of who will replace Morata for the couple of games that he is likely to miss, and there are three options at present stretching from the most logical to the more fanciful hypotheses.
The natural replacement is obviously Luka Jovic, who however was very disappointing against Torino and therefore it is not excluded that Paulo Fonseca could give a chance to another player.
That player could well be Noah Okafor, who came on and did well against the Granata and scored the equaliser in the 95th minute. He has earned a ‘super sub’ reputation, yet the feeling is he deserves more starts.
The last idea leads to Francesco Camarda, fresh from his first two goals as a professional on Saturday evening in Milan Futuro’s 2-1 victory in the Coppa Italia Serie C against Novara, though for obvious reasons this seems a more unlikely scenario.
