Milan optimistic about Rafael Leao’s recovery for Roma match | OneFootball

The day after the 0-1 victory against Hellas Verona, Milan returned to work at Milanello to prepare for the next match against Roma.

Coach Paulo Fonseca will have a reason to smile today given the return to the group of Ismael Bennacer, who aims to be called up for the match against Roma, scheduled for Sunday 29 December at 20:45.

In addition to Bennacer, Christian Pulisic, Alvaro Morata and Luka Jovic are also getting closer to returning, and are intensifying their recovery process.

However, the situation of Rafael Leao remains to be evaluated.

The Portuguese winger suffered a strain to the flexor of his left thigh during the match against Verona and will undergo instrumental tests today to understand the extent of the injury.

Despite this, Milan are optimistic for a quick recovery.
