Alexis Saelemaekers\u2019 injury may cause AC Milan to change their system against Fiorentina this weekend; Massimiliano Allegri is thinking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Milan have left the international window looking a bit bruised, and there is still a handful of games and players left to watch. So, there is a possibility that further assessments will have to be made. Of course, the hope is that that is not the case.<\/p>\n
Regardless of this, the Rossoneri are competing with one of the biggest issues in the squad currently, and Allegri is left questioning a decision.<\/p>\n
Allegri stuck?<\/p>\n
Saelemaekers, as reports have already confirmed, is awaiting a scan<\/a> to see the extent of his muscle strain. He may only miss two games, but his importance is unmatched in the team, arguably. So, a change would have to be made.<\/p>\n Tuttosport (via MilanNews<\/a>) report that three possibilities are being considered. The first would see Zachary Athekame start in the Belgian\u2019s place, but the question Allegri has is, is he ready to start?<\/p>\n If he deems that he is not, the Italian would be forced to change his system. A 4-4-2 or a 4-3-3 seems most likely, with Christian Pulisic moving back to the right. If it were the latter, Rafael Leao could return to the starting XI if he is ready<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alexis Saelemaekers\u2019 injury may cause AC Milan to change their system against Fiorentina this weekend; Massimiliano Allegri is…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":221363,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":["post-221362","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221362","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=221362"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/221362\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/221363"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=221362"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=221362"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=221362"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
