Sergio Conceicao has finally been able to work with his team for a full week and will be back on the pitch on Saturday to try to get his head back up. The goal of fourth place is now completely gone, with Juventus taking the lead, but qualification for Europe is also becoming increasingly complicated.
Milan’s season is truly disastrous, but there is still one goal to achieve, winning the Coppa Italia. A goal that is certainly not easy since getting to the final will require getting the better of Inter Milan, in a double derby that gives the Rossoneri fans chills.
Throwing the crisis behind us, starting to get positive results, is therefore crucial, in order to arrive at the two stracittadine more mentally fresh. It starts in Lecce, away from the San Siro. At home Milan at the moment there are no particular critical issues related to injuries.

There will clearly be a need to replace the disqualified Mike Maignan and Pavlovic: so for the first time in the league Marco Sportiello will be between the posts. In the center of defense the candidates to play from the start are Matteo Gabbia and Malick Thiaw, but a revival of Fikayo Tomori cannot be ruled out.
There are also whispers of a rejection for Theo Hernandez, who would make room for Alex Jimenez, with Kyle Walker on the right. A rejection that of the Frenchman that would tie, of course, with that of Rafa Leao. Oddly enough still together, still the two of them. Tomorrow we will find out if this will really be the case or if the usual rumors will be blown away by the wind in Lecce, where it usually blows hard.
Novelties in the midfield are also not ruled out. Tijjani Reijnders, eager to celebrate his renewal, is certainly not in question. After the rejection of Yunus Musah it seems complicated to think of seeing him again, but Sergio Conceicao has his sights set on the player.
The novelty in the midfield, however, could be Warren Bondo. The 2003-born French midfielder, snatched from Monza in the very last hours of the soccer market at Monza, has not played so far. Zero minutes even inexplicably: the player, after all, has been at Conceicao’s disposal since February 15, when he went on the bench against Verona. The first match against Empoli, however, had been missed due to muscle problems (he was recovering). Bondo, then, has been training regularly with the team for about a month now, and Saturday may indeed be the time to see him on the field, perhaps even from the start.
