AC Milan are gearing up for their first match under new manager Sergio Conceição, set to debut against his son Francisco and Juventus in the 2025 Supercoppa Italiana semifinal. The winner of this encounter will face either Inter or Atalanta in the final on Monday, January 6th.
The Rossoneri held their first training session in Saudi Arabia this afternoon, two days before the crucial match against Thiago Motta’s Juventus. The session, which took place on Saudi soil, consisted of short muscle activation exercises and rondos, followed by tactical drills. Two significant updates emerged from this initial practice in the Middle East.
American winger Christian Pulisic has fully participated in team training and is confirmed fit for the match against Juventus. This news comes as a relief to Milan fans, as Pulisic’s presence could be crucial in the high-stakes semifinal.
However, the situation is less clear for Portuguese star Rafael Leão. The forward engaged in personalized training on the field, suggesting that the coaching staff is aiming for his inclusion on the bench at the very least.
Meanwhile, both Yunus Musah and Ruben Loftus-Cheek are in the recovery phase. Their availability for the match will be determined after tomorrow’s final training session, scheduled for 3:30 PM Italian time. This last practice before the game will be decisive in finalizing the squad for the Supercoppa clash.
