Pulisic injury adds to Milan worry for Juventus clash | OneFootball

Milan could be without several top stars for this weekend’s clash with Juventus, as Alvaro Morata is suspended, while Christian Pulisic sustained an injury.

The two sides are set to go head-to-head for position in Serie A at the Allianz Juventus Stadium in Turin on Saturday January 18.

We already know that Morata will not be able to face his former club, as he picked up a yellow card for a clumsy challenge on Assane Diao in today’s trip to Como and will therefore be suspended.

On the stroke of half-time, USMNT star Pulisic pulled up clutching the back of his left thigh and had to be substituted.

Although more tests are required to ascertain the extent of the damage, it does not look good for having Pulisic in the starting XI for the next match on Saturday evening.

Pulisic has been one of the most effective players for the Rossoneri so far this season, contributing 10 goals and seven assists in all competition.

Milan already beat Juventus 2-1 in the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final earlier this month, going on to lift the trophy with a 3-2 victory over Inter in the Final.
