Another three Milan players test positive for Covid-19
Milan have announced that another three players have tested positive for COVID-19, reported to be Fikayo Tomori, Alessio Romagnoli and Davide Calabria.
They join Ciprian Tatarusanu and Samu Castillejo in self-isolation.
Although the three new players have not been named, Sky Sport Italia point out that Tomori, Romagnoli and Calabria did not take part in today’s training session and where not at the Milanello camp.
This would suggest they are not going to be part of the first Serie A game of 2022, which is against Roma at San Siro on Thursday at 17.30 GMT.
Stefano Pioli has not yet announced his squad list, so it is not guaranteed that these are the players who tested positive, but it will point towards them.
It’s a blow for Milan, because they are already missing Fode Ballo-Toure, Franck Kessie and Ismael Bennacer on Africa Cup of Nations duty.
Pietro Pellegri, Simon Kjaer and Alessandro Plizzari are injured.
