AC Milan can blow after the fear last night in San Siro. If the victory against Bologna has been a sporting reassuring, the concern hovered over the state of health of Mike Maignan and Strahinja Pavlović, both released prematurely. This morning, medical examinations dismissed all serious muscle lesion for the two players. Maignan suffers from an elongation in the right calf while Pavlović presents discomfort in the left flexor. Their development will be followed daily by the club's medical staff.
This news is encouraging for Massimiliano Allegri and his workforce, which hoped to avoid long absences. Pavlović had left the lawn at the break, replaced by De Winter, while Maignan had to give up his place at the start of the second period to Pietro Terracciano. The prudent management of the two executives and the absence of a serious injury suggest a gradual return to training, subject to a favorable clinical development.
