New updates are emerging that are causing concern among Milan fans regarding Alexis Saelemaekers’ condition. On Monday, the Rossoneri club issued an official statement explaining that the recent injury to his right ankle has caused new problems in the joint, which had already undergone surgery in 2024.

The Belgian winger was forced to sit out after sustaining the injury during training, and the latest specialist examinations have revealed a condition that will require further evaluation before a treatment plan can be determined. No recovery timeline has been announced at this time, but the situation is being closely monitored by the Rossoneri medical staff.

“AC Milan announces that, over the weekend, Alexis Saelemaekers underwent further examinations on his right ankle—the same one that underwent surgery in 2024 to treat a fracture of the medial malleolus,” reads the official statement. Specialized examinations have revealed that, following a recent injury sustained during training, the ankle has lost stability at the site of the previous surgery. In light of the test results, a specialist evaluation is currently underway to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.”

The coming hours will therefore be decisive in determining the course of action to be taken and, above all, in obtaining more precise information on how long it will take for the player to return to the field. The loss of stability in the previously operated ankle is, in fact, a cause for concern within the Rossoneri organization, as they await the specialists’ conclusions and the rehabilitation plan.
