"In training yes, as he continues to recover from an ankle injury, but he is expected to be out for the Lazio game on Thursday night and the Torino trip on Monday. Individual training sessions are scheduled at least until the end of the week, followed by a return to the squad and a phase of high-intensity training. Meanwhile, December is ticking away and we are heading towards January, which in turn will open the way to a potential departure."
"It's possible these are indirect inquiries or that the player's agent is exploring alternative options, both in England and in other foreign markets. Gimenez had given up on looking elsewhere in the summer, despite Milan and Allegri offering him no guarantee of a starting role. The Mexican had preferred to give himself more time with the Rossoneri to finally shine. Today, however, the situation is different."
"The issue is essentially tactical: Allegri demands players who vary their movements, intending to leverage speed on the break rather than the physicality in the penalty area and the lay-offs of a professional striker. This is why Gimenez is thinking: at Milan he risks finding limited space. It's the opposite of what Santi needs to try to resurface from a difficult moment, which is guarantees of use and a massive dose of confidence. Allegri has always been kind and appreciative of the striker's commitment,"
Santiago Gimenez is recovering from an ankle injury and is expected to miss the Lazio and Torino matches while completing individual training and a high-intensity return to squad work. December's approaching January raises the possibility of a transfer during the winter window. West Ham and Sunderland have reportedly shown interest, though Milan has not received official offers and the player's agent may be exploring options. Gimenez had chosen to stay at Milan over the summer despite no guaranteed starting role. Tactical preferences at Milan favor Rafael Leao, Christian Pulisic, and Christopher Nkunku, limiting Gimenez's playing opportunities and prompting consideration of departure.
