Fikayo Tomori underwent an MRI scan on his thigh injury today, and from what we have learned he is facing a long spell on the sidelines.
According to the information that the club have provided, the instrumental tests that Tomori underwent this morning highlighted a myo-tendinous lesion of the right femoral biceps, in other words a serious muscle injury.
The English centre-back will not be back any time soon, and while the risk of surgery seems to have been avoided, he is looking at a minimum of two months out due to the severity of the problem.
It is a huge blow for Milan and for Stefano Pioli who not only lose a defensive leader and one of the best players from the season so far, but it also worsens the emergency given that Malick Thiaw and Pierre Kalulu are also out for the foreseeable too.
The Rossoneri are back in action on December 30, and in all likelihood Simon Kjaer will be asked to partner one of either Jan-Carlo Simic or Theo Hernandez in the four-man defence against Sassuolo, unless he decides to revert to a three again.
