Milan coach Stefano Pioli has named his 21-man squad list for tonight’s match against Venezia and seven Rossoneri players are out of action with injuries.
The likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Olivier Giroud, Davide Calabria, Rade Krunic, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Junior Messias and Simon Kjaer are still on the treatment table, so they will miss tonight’s match against newly-promoted Venezia at San Siro.
It kicks off at 19.45 UK time.
Kjaer sustained an injury during the Rossoneri’s away game against Juventus over the weekend, which saw his other six teammates on the sidelines.

The Swede could recover in time for Milan’s Champions League match against Atletico Madrid on September 28, while the recovery time for the former Chelsea striker is still unknown.
