A little less than 12 months after the success in the final against Inter, which was worth the eighth title in its history in the Italian Super Cup, Milan is preparing for the semifinal of the 2025 edition of the tournament, scheduled for Thursday at 8 p.m. Italian time (10 p.m. local time) against Napoli, while having to deal with a delicate situation at the level of injuries, especially up front.

Talking in a press conference in Riyadh, Massimiliano Allegri tried to shed light, first of all, on the condition of Rafael Leao, who came out at the half-hour of the first half of the match played at Immaculate Conception in Turin and was absent on Sunday in the ‘lunch match’ against Sassuolo: “He will participate in training today ’– said the Rossoneri coach. We will see in the end if he can be available for tomorrow”.
