"I think the fans have been very present since the beginning of the year, and that's a great thing for us. The important thing tomorrow is to try to get the three points against a tough Verona team; they have quick players. They're a team that attacks the penalty area very well. We need to play a tidy game, trying to improve our defense, which, as a team, has been lacking in recent games."
"I'm smiling because I think he has the qualities to perform well tomorrow too, given that Leao isn't playing and won't be called up: he's got this discomfort that's keeping him from running at his usual pace. I preferred to leave him at home because part-fit players aren't good. Fullkrug arrived happy to have joined Milan and very eager. Gabbia is still out, he's doing well, but we'll see"
Rafael Leao will miss the upcoming AC Milan match against Hellas Verona due to a persistent discomfort that limits his pace, so he was not called up. Milan drew 2-2 with Sassuolo after conceding late and have struggled against lower-table opponents this season, increasing the urgency for three points. Allegri highlighted defensive lapses and described Verona as quick and effective at attacking the penalty area. Christopher Nkunku is viewed as capable of stepping up in Leao's absence. New signing Fullkrug arrived eager to join, while Matteo Gabbia remains injured but is progressing.
