"Rafael Leao has recovered for tomorrow's clash between AC Milan and Roma, as highlighted by Gazzetta dello Sport, and he will certainly play a key role for the Rossoneri. Milan have been struggling with injuries in the last few weeks, and when reports suggested that Leao was in doubt for this weekend's game, things were looking very dire. Fortunately, the winger has recovered and will be available."
"Indeed, Leao is feeling much better after the hip problem that stopped him against Atalanta and Massimiliano Allegri will evaluate him during today's training session. That said, everything suggests that he will be on the pitch from the first minute. If the above is confirmed, it would be the first game from start for the Leao-Nkunku duo. The two have only been on the pitch together for short periods: 16 minutes against Juventus and 14 minutes against Pisa."
Rafael Leao returned to group training after a minor hip problem and is available for AC Milan's match against Roma. Milan have faced multiple injuries recently, and Leao's recovery improved morale at Milanello. With Santiago Gimenez expected to miss the game through injury, Massimiliano Allegri is planning to start Leao alongside Christopher Nkunku up front. Leao and Nkunku have only shared limited minutes together so far, totaling 16 minutes against Juventus and 14 minutes against Pisa. Allegri will assess Leao in training, and Roma's pressing patterns could affect Milan's tactical setup.
