Official: Pioli names 23-man Champions League squad – no Ibra or Maignan

AC Milan have officially named their squad for the Champions League last 16 tie that is coming up against Spurs.

Milan have made a change to their Champions League squad list as our colleagues at SempreMilan.it report that Sergino Dest has been left out and Malick Thiaw has been included by Stefano Pioli.

Surprisingly, for the two games against Spurs, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Mike Maignan have not been included, perhaps because they are considered not yet ready after long respective injury lay-offs.

For clarity, however, it must be said that Milan will still have a window available that will arrive up to 24 hours before the first leg match to still include the French goalkeeper as per article 46.2 of the UEFA competition code.

Below is the complete squad list:

1 Ciprian TATARUSANU
83 Antonio MIRANTE

2 Davide CALABRIA
4 Ismael BENNACER
5 Fode BALLO-TOURÉ
8 Sandro TONALI
9 Olivier GIROUD
10 BRAHIM Diaz
12 Ante REBIC
17 Rafael LEAO
19 Theo HERNANDEZ
20 Pierre KALULU
23 Fikayo TOMORI
24 Simon KJAER
25 Alessandro FLORENZI
27 Divock ORIGI
28 Malick THIAW
30 Junior MESSIAS
32 Tommaso POBEGA
33 Rade KRUNIC
46 Matteo GABBIA
56 Alexis SAELEMAEKERS
