There are yet more injury problems for Milan to deal with, as Fikayo Tomori limped off with a knee issue during the Coppa Italia tie with Genoa.
This was his comeback from the start after recovering from COVID-19 and he was raring to go at San Siro in this Round of 16 tie.
However, it lasted only 20 minutes before he pulled up mid-run and immediately asked the medical staff for assistance.
The former Chelsea defender tried to continue for a couple of minutes, but eventually had to give up and limp off, making way for Alessandro Florenzi.
Pierre Kalulu therefore moved from right-back to the central defensive role to fill in.
Tomori was seen clutching the inside of his left knee and it remains to be seen precisely what damage he has done.
Milan were already going into this game without Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Davide Calabria, Simon Kjaer, Alessio Romagnoli, Samu Castillejo, Pietro Pellegri, Franck Kessie, Fode Ballo-Toure and Ismael Bennacer due to injuries, COVID-19 or Africa Cup of Nations duty.

Judging by where he was pointing, it looks like a medial collateral ligament issue.
Don’t you worry guys, Football Italia’s resident doctor Rosario is on the case. The son of general surgeon (his mama also a gynecologist), the proud Lombardo with monopoly on supporting Milan. All hail and GTOU if you’re not from Lombardy.
@Milan fan.
Too right! Support your local team. Why won’t you say where you are in the world?
Boy you’re all kinds of stupid. Why won’t you go to websites in you mother-tongue to write your drivel in your native language? Why do you come here?! This is an English language website based in UK intended for English-speaking fans of Italian football around the world, as anyone can read in their description. So the real question is, why won’t you go to your local websites to speak to other people from your area, clown? More importantly, why won’t you go to the stadium to support the club? No, you prefer to sit with doctor daddy and doctor mommy on your rear ends every week in front of the TV instead, then come here making speeches about supporting local teams. Sadistic much?!
Get help.
Yep, Rosario get help. You are entertaining but you definitely could do with counselling.
@Milan fan.
When I was supporting the magazine, and then the website, your parents hadn’t as yet found indoor plumbing. Follow my twitter for the games I go to. Regrettably I had to come back to London for work post the festive break, but was lucky to take in the Empoli and Roma games. Unlike you who has never ever seen Milan live.
So where are you bandwagoning Milan from?
@Interello
Support your local team.
Internationale is, by dint of its creation, an International club, that welcomes players and fans from across the world from its inception. So successful are we, that your club, AC Milan, changed its tune and for many years have signed foreigners to play for them, and been successful for it, despite not starting out that way.
Nothing makes me cringe more than plastics referring to clubs they bandwagon as ‘we’ 😂 OK OK! You are a ‘fan’! Big big fan!
@Rosario
Son, you’re still at the age where you sit in front of the TV together with mommy and daddy. I bet my house you have barely finished college, if not puberty. At least I hope so, cause otherwise, it means you’re one handicapped adult. As I’ve said before, based on your own nonsense, you need to join your local Italian websites from Lombardy, you don’t belong here. Now I’ve ignored you long enough, because I’m past that age where I feel the need to entertain fools, but seems like you have a fetish for me. Like a child, you wouldn’t let go so I’m gonna treat you like one. Maybe you like to be insulted, maybe that’s what floats your boat, I really don’t know, I don’t know why I’m living in your head rent free, but since you’re asking for it, I’m gonna s**t all over you from now on every time I see your name, just like you ache for it. Get ready and bring out your raincoat, cause it’s gonna rain.
Which run down hole are you crawling out of? Why scared to say where you are? Come say all this face to face! London, Milan or anywhere in Europe for that matter. Lets see if you’re any but a brave keyboard soldier!
Soil all over me behind a keyboard? Come and do it to my face, wannabe turncoat! Lets see it
This is a UK based website for Italian football! We both know you’re from neither! Drivel some more as we both know what you are! If you had any credibility, you would show yourself!
A window into European football here is your life! Hence why you were crying when your drivel was being censored in comments! Let me know when indoor plumbing reaches your neighbourhood.
Why even play Tomori in this match? I guess we’re going to have to make due with Romagnoli-Kalulu for the rest of the season. Top 4 guys. Eyes on the prize. Milan lab should be shot. All of them.
@Rosario
Just be quite already, your first post was enough, now you’re digging yourself further down the rabbit hole.
I will not venture any further with your argument stating “support” your local team. What a bunch of crap.
Vero, top 2 at least, the title is staying in Milan, red or blue, 50/50!!! Best season!!!
AC Milan was founded by Englishmen, immigration is an integral part of the backbone of any prosperous Western country. Can we save the politics and just enjoy the football?
Calm down party people…it’s Friday after all!!!
@Rosario
I never said. You’re the one making imaginary presumptions, so tell me. What country I’m from? Or are you just going insane here? 😂 I’m only using what you’ve told me, you’ve got nothing boy. You’re all over the place, and I’m loving it!
For the place and time go 8 or 9 comments up, do you have dementia? How many times do I have to tell you?
