Athekame joins Gimenez on injury list and will miss derby against Inter
"In addition to Santiago Gimenez, Zachary Athekame will also miss out on the big derby between AC Milan and Inter, as confirmed by Massimiliano Allegri earlier today. Injuries have been a hot topic for Milan this season, having been forced to sideline some of their stars for multiple weeks. Now, however, the situation is looking a lot better as Christian Pulisic has regained full fitness, while Adrien Rabiot returned to training this week."
"Only a couple of players are on the injury list as things stand, though one of them was added to it in recent days. During his press conference, Allegri stated that Athekame picked up a calf injury while on international duty with Switzerland's U21 side. Not that he was expected to play either way, but the 20-year-old could have been a good option in the final minutes of the game."
Zachary Athekame will miss the Milan derby after picking up a calf injury while on international duty with Switzerland's U21 side. Santiago Gimenez is also on the injury list with an ankle problem, targeting a return for the Lazio game. Christian Pulisic has regained full fitness and Adrien Rabiot returned to training this week. Only a couple of players remain sidelined at present. Athekame, a 20-year-old, could have been a late-game option but will be unavailable. Further tests are required to establish a clearer timeframe for Athekame's recovery.
