CM: Milan at ‘full strength’ against Bayer Leverkusen but Fonseca has three doubts | OneFootball

AC Milan are continuing to prepare for the difficult away match against Bayer Leverkusen, the second Champions League game of the season after the defeat to Liverpool on September 17.

Coming off three consecutive wins in the league, including the derby, Calciomercato.com report that Paulo Fonseca’s men have had their usual final training session at Milanello on the eve of the game in Germany.

The good sensations from yesterday’s training session were confirmed, with Davide Calabria and Noah Okafor returning to the group and Alvaro Morata back to 100% after suffering bursitis in his knee after a contusion knock in recent days.

The squad and staff will leave for Germany after lunch and Fonseca will speak this evening directly from the BayArena in Leverkusen alongside Rafael Leao. The coach, though, has not yet resolved the doubts regarding the team to oppose the reigning German champions coached by Xabi Alonso.

The dilemmas concern the choice of right-back between Emerson Royal and Calabria plus Matteo Gabbia’s partner in the centre (Strahinja Pavlovic is trying to take his spot back from Fikayo Tomori), as well as whether or not to use two strikers.

If Fonseca were to opt to give a rest to one between Tammy Abraham and Alvaro Morata, the choice would fall on Ruben Loftus-Cheek to take their place, who would act in that familiar No.10 role behind the centre-forward.
