There is simply no end to AC Milan’s injury crisis as Noah Okafor has become the latest player to suffer a muscle injury and he faces weeks out.
As we have learned, Okafor suffered a thigh injury during Switzerland’s recent game against Romania and the MRI scan carried out yesterday upon his return to Milanello highlighted a lesion to the right hamstring.
The player will be re-evaluated with new tests in a week, but given the nature of the injury we can safely presume he will be out for the best part of a month and therefore will miss some crucial upcoming fixtures.
It is more bad news for Stefano Pioli, who already has to do without Rafael Leao and Olivier Giroud for the game against Fiorentina. Now, it seems obvious that Luka Jovic will get the nod to start up front on Saturday against his former side, and probably the following weekend versus Frosinone.
