The AC Milan squad did a morning training session today as preparations continued for the Champions League game against Girona.

Milan have been on a good run in the Champions League having won four games in a row against Club Brugge, Real Madrid, Slovan Bratislava and Red Star, which has propelled them towards the top eight places.

As MilanNews reports, the team trained this morning at Milanello in preparation for Wednesday’s UCL game against Girona at San Siro (kick-off at 21:00 CET). Tomorrow will be the media day, with Sergio Conceicao and a player speaking at a press conference at 13:30.

Good news has arrived on the condition of Alvaro Morata, who left the match against Como six days ago at half-time due to muscle fatigue. The striker – who missed Saturday’s match against Juventus due to suspension – trained regularly with the group.

Christian Pulisic, on the other hand, did not train with the rest of his team-mates as he too is struggling with a muscle issue suffered against Como. The American forward also did some individual work today.

Tomorrow will be decisive to understand if the No.11 will return to full work and will therefore be available to Conceiçao for the match against Girona.

  1. People don’t realize importance of morata in defensive phase of the game.
    And we are just not giving him the supplies , the midfield link is missing

  2. Maybe don’t run him into the ground coming back from an injury this time…
    He was just coming back from an injury and he plays him the full 90 against juventus where he runs more than anyone on the pitch, then plays him the full 90 3 days later against Juve, The full 90 against Cagliari, and then 3 days later against Como.
    So he just returns from an injury and plays 4 games in 11 days, the full 90 in all except the 1 he gets injured in again. This was entirely predictable. Can we be a little smarter this time.

  3. That’s the only way our players can get some rest. injuries or cards. I bet Reijnders has dreams about that red card he got earlier in the season..

    1. yep lol we have zero depth.
      oh to be Berlusconi’s labor of love again instead of a corporation’s side business/investment. which is this.
