AC Milan’s attacking options are in jeopardy as they prepare for a crucial Serie A match against Napoli on Tuesday. Sky Sport Italia report how the Rossoneri are facing a potential striker crisis with both Tammy Abraham and Luka Jovic doubtful for the high-profile encounter.
Abraham, who has been sidelined with a shoulder injury sustained during Milan’s recent match against Udinese, is confirmed to miss the Napoli clash. The English forward has been unable to recover in time, dealing a significant blow to Milan’s offensive capabilities.
Meanwhile, Jovic’s availability remains uncertain. The Serbian striker is battling the early stages of pubalgia and will undergo a late fitness test on Monday to determine his readiness for the match. Milan manager Paulo Fonseca is holding onto a glimmer of hope that Jovic might be available for selection.
The potential absence of both Abraham and Jovic leaves Milan with limited options in attack for what promises to be a challenging fixture against title contenders Napoli. This situation could force Fonseca to reshuffle his tactical approach and rely on alternative attacking solutions.
The match against Napoli holds significant importance for Milan as they aim to keep pace in the Serie A title race. Having had their weekend fixture against Bologna postponed due to adverse weather conditions, the Rossoneri are eager to maintain their momentum and close the gap on the league leaders.
