Official: Pioli names 23-man squad for Real Madrid friendly – Kjaer in but duo miss out

AC Milan will face Real Madrid tonight in their penultimate preseason friendly and what will also be their biggest test yet in their summer campaign.

The game will take place at the Wörthersee Stadium in Klagenfurt at 18:30 CEST, for the #AthletesVersus Cup, and the club have this morning picked the squad that will be available for the game as confirmed on their official website.

The main story is that Simon Kjaer returns to being available for selection. The centre-back had an extended vacation after his campaign at the Euros with Denmark. Jens Petter Hauge has been left out of the squad meanwhile as rumours continue to filter that he is close to an exit, while Andrea Conti has also been left out amid doubts over his future.

Goalkeepers: Maignan, Plizzari, Tătăruşanu.

Defenders: Ballo-Touré, Calabria, Gabbia, Hernández, Kalulu, Kjaer, Romagnoli, Tomori.

Midfielders: Castillejo, Di Gesù, Díaz, Krunić, Pobega, Robotti, Saelemaekers, Tonali.

Forwards: Giroud, Leão, Maldini, Rebić.
