"AC Milan's injury problems have gone from bad to worse as Ruben Loftus-Cheek could also miss tonight's game against Fiorentina. It was already known that Milan would go into the game with a wave of injury issues. Christian Pulisic, Adrien Rabiot, Pervis Estupinan, Christopher Nkunku and Ardon Jashari will all be absent, depleting the already thin depth."
"Now, Sky are reporting that there was a problem on Saturday in training, and it will further affect Massimiliano Allegri's planning for the game: Loftus-Cheek suffered a problem in training, a muscle issue. The English midfielder will have a test today on the day of the game to see if he can make it. If he is not in the best condition then Saelemaekers will play as an attacking midfielder being Rafael Leao, with Zachary Athekame on the right."
""We have enough players for tomorrow's match, so there are absolutely no problems in that sense. Injuries are part of the season, you have to be good at understanding the moment. It's extra motivation.""
AC Milan will approach the Fiorentina match with numerous absences as Christian Pulisic, Adrien Rabiot, Pervis Estupinan, Christopher Nkunku and Ardon Jashari are all unavailable, reducing squad depth. Ruben Loftus-Cheek suffered a muscle problem in Saturday training and faces a late fitness test on matchday. If Loftus-Cheek cannot play, Saelemaekers is expected to be deployed as an attacking midfielder alongside Rafael Leao, with Zachary Athekame on the right. Manager Massimiliano Allegri emphasized that the squad still contains sufficient players and described injuries as extra motivation rather than an excuse.
