AC Milan may be forced to change the team a little this weekend, after some injury news that has emerged from training.
After the win against Inter, Milan are flying and will hope to extend their run of positive form with a good result this weekend against Lazio. However, they have suffered a blow in today’s training session.

Reports from Milanello
According to MilanNews, Alexis Saelemaekers and Christian Pulisic both suffered ‘minor’ injuries during today’s work. Whilst they worked with the group for the majority of the session, the causes of the injuries are unknown.
For Pulisic, a ‘mild muscle strain’ was reported, whilst the Belgian reported that he was suffering from a back problem. However, the initial reaction from Milanello does not seem to be one of concern, at least not for now.
In the coming days, we will find out more about the situation, but hopefully, neither are real issues, but rather slight pains that do not affect their presence against the Laziali this weekend.
Pulisic and Saelemaekers have been two of the Rossoneri’s most important players so far this season, and with coverage low in both areas, Massimiliano Allegri will hope that neither is set to spend any time on the sidelines.
Here we go again
I swear, this club HAS to be cursed.
Zzzzz….
Damn!! What the hell is wrong with this pulisic guy and everytime injuries for God sake?? Am beginning to ge tired his injury prone system😡😡
He’s tied for top scorer and has 7 goal contributions in 8 games. Calm down.
prior to the injury in October he really has not been injured while at Milan
Says the guy who probably can’t get off his couch and walk 3 blocks.
😀 😀 😀 😀
Silly troll.
We should do what Pioli did and sub him out at the 70min mark consistently. He runs alot for an attacker and seems prone to injuries when playing long minutes during games. During that season he had almost none from what I can recall. Just load manage the guy like we did before.
It’s the international travel and it’s not just Pulisic all the US players come back jet lagged, fatigued, or injured. Even Pervis got hurt against the US. I agree though pull puli in the 70th and give the other forwards minutes.
Against Inter he was on top of the “distance covered” for Milan. He works too hard sometimes. 😀
Saelemakers has a back injury from carrying the team
Haha, what a nice pun.. but yeah, you’re completely right about carrying the team bro 👍🏻
Couple of seasons back I dislike saelemaekers so much but he has won my heart with the way he plays now. He’s one of the best players we have in that team now. For, pulisic, he has a fragile bones and love to give his all on the pitch. I wish they will both be available for lazio game.
