The Portuguese player was halted yesterday during the match against Verona and aims to return for the Supercup.

Rafael Leao has been sidelined, causing anxiety for Paulo Fonseca ahead of next Sunday’s match against Roma, which the Portuguese player will inevitably miss due to injury. Today’s tests have confirmed a strain in the left flexor: a new check with a resonance scan will be made in a week to understand how the muscle situation will evolve. Translated, Leao will not be available for the December 29th showdown against the giallorossi, aiming to return in time for the Supercoppa in early January. The rest of Milan’s training took place in the gym, providing a fatiguing workout for the eleven starters from last night’s victorious game in Verona. The other team members warmed up on the field with muscle activation exercises involving low obstacles and cones. The session continued with the team engaged in a series of technical drills on possession and finishing moves, followed by the customary small-sided scrimmage that concluded today’s session.
