Allegri confirms Ibrahimovic absence and reveals Inzaghi return for Udinese clash: Serie A news
A.C Milan manager, Massimiliano Allegri, has ruled out a return for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029 in the game against Udinese.
Milan will host the Friulani in their next league game on Wednesday, September 21, 2011 and are still faced with a host of injury concerns. The injury crisis has cost the Rossoneri side a lot as they have still not won a game in
the ongoing campaign. On the other hand, their opponents have picked up wins in both of their league games thus far and are yet to concede a goal.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gennaro-Gattuso-c14525 are all missing for the Italian Champions through injuries and Allegri is most likely to field the same line-up from the 3-1
defeat to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 over the weekend.
The 44-year-old revealed that Ibrahimovic has still some time to recover from the injury he picked in the training and will not be available for the Udinese clash. The former Cagliari managed also revealed that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Cassano-c6302
and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alexandre-Pato-c4901 will continue to lead the strike force despite combining ineffectively in the games played together thus far.
However, there is some good news on the injury front for the Italian Champions as veteran striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Filippo-Inzaghi-c13777, is set to make a return from injury and could feature from the bench. The manager also hinted of deploying Brazilian
defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903, in a midfielder role.
Talking to the reporters Allegri said, “Ibra won’t recover in time for Cesena, but should be ready for Juventus. The same is true for Boateng, while Robinho won’t make it. Gattuso is undergoing tests on his optic nerve to evaluate
his recovery time.”
“If Pippo Inzaghi is ready to play some of the game, then I’ll bring him with us on the bench. I can confirm Alexandre Pato and Antonio Cassano will play up front. I could place Thiago Silva in midfield, as he did well there in
the past.”
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fluminense-c39366 star has been really effective when played in the holding midfield role and Allegri believes that the move could be extremely beneficial for his side.
Milan will host Francesco Guidolin’s men on September 21, 2011.
