AC Milan head coach Marco Giampaolo has named the official 23-man squad ahead of Thursday’s trip to face Torino.

The Rossoneri will make the trip north to the Stadio Olimpico looking to put Saturday’s derby defeat to Inter behind them.

Milan have won two and lost two of their opening four games to begin the season, but Giampaolo is under pressure to deliver significant improvements to the performances.

His side have amassed just two goals scored so far this term with only one coming from open play, leading to reports from Calciomercato.com which suggest he has three games to turn things around.

After Wednesday morning’s training session at Milanello, Giampaolo issued the list of 23 Rossoneri players called up for the game against Torino – scheduled for 21:00 CEST kick-off – via the club’s official website.

GOALKEEPERS
A. Donnarumma, G. Donnarumma, Reina.

DEFENDERS
Calabria, Conti, Duarte, Gabbia, Hernandez, Musacchio, Rodriguez, Romagnoli.

MIDFIELDERS
Bennacer, Biglia, Bonaventura, Çalhanoglu, Kessie, Krunic.

ATTACKERS
Borini, Castillejo, Leao, Piatek, Rebic, Suso.

The obvious exclusion is Lucas Paqueta, who is expected to miss the next two games with a muscle injury he sustained against Inter, as per La Gazzetta dello Sport.
