AC Milan have arrived at the international break with nine players set to depart Milanello and head around the world, all hoping not to pick up any injuries and to come back with some extra confidence.
Nine is a very low number of players for Milan to have released for international duty, but there are so many injuries in the team. There were 15 players who left in the last break, but that has dropped by six.
The official Milan website have provided an overview of every player who will be in action for their country, and the games they will play in.

Someone is def getting hurt.
Hopefully switzerland wont field okafor 3 times in 6 days. Who the hell decides these fixture dates should have their heads checked,
They don’t care about the players’ health. They want to have as many games as possible to make profit.
That’s why pretty much every competition has now more games than ever before.
Just imagine what will happen to the player with new UCL and Club world cup format.
We will need teams with like 40 players and 10 subs to be allowed. A club like us who can’t spend/not willing to spend is simply not gonna be able to compete against EPL clubs and PSG.
The Israel game was rescheduled after the Hamas attack. Did you not hear about that?
Tomori, Thiaw, reijnders, Musah – 4 good healthy players who have played every game. Eventually it will catch up, fingers crossed not now.
At least in Italy there is a Christmas break!
I thought Thiaw was having time off because of his wife giving birth?
