SM: Rebic and Origi both injured for Milan clash with Sassuolo

Both Ante Rebic and Divock Origi are injured and will not play a part in AC Milan’s clash with Sassuolo in Reggio Emilia on Tuesday, a report claims.

As has been reported by our colleagues at SempreMilan.it, the two strikers who had seemed to be in line to start the game will both be staying in Milan rather than heading south to Emilia-Romagna.

The Croatian forward has suffered a back injury which means that he cannot provide a rest for Rafael Leao who was set to drop to the bench.

Origi has also been denied his first-ever start for Milan as he has got an inflammation to an existing issue that means he is not at 100%.

He will be staying at Milanello as a precaution as there is no desire to make his issue any worse and delay his contribution to the team even further given he arrived from Liverpool injured.
