AC Milan’s injury problems have been virtually a constant in the early season so far, but some good news has arrived regarding the first game back after the break against Fiorentina.
According to Tuttosport (via MilanNews), Stefano Pioli should welcome three players back into the fold during the break, namely centre-back Simon Kjaer, midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek and winger Chistian Pulisic.
Davide Calabria should also recover after he came off against Lecce on Sunday with some muscle discomfort, but the newspaper does not believe that Rafael Leao will be available for the match against La Viola after he too was removed during Saturday’s 2-2 draw.
Having Kjaer back would be a big boost for the defensive numbers given that Pierre Kalulu and Marco Pellegrino remain out, while Loftus-Cheek’s performance against Paris Saint-Germain showed his importance and Pulisic has been among the most consistent performers with four goals to his name.
