After Theo Hernandez, there is another new injury problem for Milan, as Rade Krunic went off with a muscular issue.

The Rossoneri were already decimated going into this evening’s clash with Udinese at San Siro and the situation only got worse for coach Stefano Pioli.

Theo Hernandez was expected to start this evening, but when the squad list was released, he was not even on the bench.

This was due to a bruised ankle that has not fully healed and it was decided not to take any unnecessary risks.

Krunic had started in midfield and did not come back out for the second half, replaced by Yacine Adli.

According to Sky Sport Italia, the Bosnia international felt a twinge in his adductor and that will require tests over the next few days.

Milan were already missing Christian Pulisic, Samuel Chukwueze, Simon Kjaer, Marco Pellegrino, Ismael Bennacer, Mattia Caldara and Marco Sportiello.

There was at least one positive, as Ruben Loftus-Cheek made his comeback after a month out at the 67th minute.
