"Massimiliano Allegri is continuing to prepare his players for Sunday night's derby against Inter, and he welcomed Luka Modric back to Milanello on Wednesday. The players are continuing to return from international duty. As MilanNews report, Rafael Leao, Strahinja Pavlovic, David Odogu, and Christopher Nkunku returned to base this morning, while this afternoon Modric landed back in Italy. Not only that, but the Croatian midfielder immediately made himself available for the afternoon's training session,"
"Modric has been nothing short of a revelation since he arrived at Milan, and not just in terms of his quality on the pitch which is still evident even at the age of 40. He is setting an example for everyone else with his commitment to self-care and dedication to professionalism. His early return is good news for Allegri given that he put the Croatian quite literally in the middle of his tactical set-up, as the deepest-lying midfielder in a 3-5-2 system."

Alexis Saelemakers, Koni De Winter, Zachary Athekame and Davide Bartesaghi remain absent and are expected to return tomorrow.
