Christian Pulisic is struggling with muscle fatigue and AC Milan are hoping to recover him for the game against Girona on Wednesday. According to a report, he worked individually at Milanello today as well.
It was in the game against Como that Pulisic was forced to leave early, immediately signalling for a substitution following a challenge. Scans later revealed no muscle lesions or tears, but the winger is struggling with fatigue and Milan don’t want to risk him.
According to Antonio Vitiello this afternoon, Pulisic continued his individual recovery during today’s training session at Milanello. Those who started yesterday’s game worked separately in the gym to recover, while the rest were out on the pitch as normal.
It should be noted that Alex Jimenez, who is one of the deputies for Pulisic on the right flank, isn’t on the Champions League squad list. This means that he won’t be available against Girona and you could definitely say that Sergio Conceicao has a very stretched squad.
As seen against Juventus last night, Pulisic is incredibly important for this team and having him back on Wednesday would be a huge boost. Not to mention that Milan need to win to keep the top 8 hopes alive.
