On the eve of the clash between Hellas Verona and Milan, Stefano Pioli has named his 21-man squad and it’s clear that he’s struggling with several absences. In addition to the already injured, Ante Rebic will also miss out.
The Croatian picked up an injury during today’s training session, leaving Milanello early, and it was later confirmed that he’s suffering from hip inflammation. Therefore, he will miss tomorrow’s game and potentially the one vs. Man Utd too.
