There is no peace for Milan under Rúben Amorim during this international break. Not only the serious injury of Alexis Saelemaekers haunts the Portuguese coach's thoughts, but now also the stop of Pervis Estupiñán. Yesterday morning, the left‑back of the Rossoneri had to miss the final for 3rd and 4th place of the Kirin Cup in Tokyo between his Ecuador and Panama. In the post‑match press conference the Tricolor's head coach, the 'Muñeco' Marcelo Gallardo, tried to reassure the environment by speaking of a precautionary choice due to a knee sprain described as 'something not to worry about'.

Injury Estupiñán: the yellow of the diagnosis between lesion and strain

Amid rumors, the first unofficial assessments from the club on Via Aldo Rossi have also leaked. According to reports from Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport, the Milan medical staff's diagnosis would suggest a low‑grade strain of the medial collateral ligament of the left knee. This clinical picture, if confirmed, would fortunately exclude the very long stops associated with cruciate ligament injuries.
