Milan fear Samuel Chukwueze could miss weeks with hip injury

Chukwueze’s fitness in doubt ahead of Bournemouth match

Samuel Chukwueze missed Milan’s Wednesday morning training session after experiencing discomfort in his left hip, leaving his availability for the Europa League meeting with Bournemouth in doubt.

The winger is scheduled to undergo medical tests and see a specialist to establish the extent of the problem. Reports in Italy, including Sport Mediaset, say Milan fear the injury could keep him out for several weeks; the possibility of a longer absence has also been raised, but the diagnosis has not yet been confirmed.

Another setback for Amorim’s squad

Chukwueze’s potential absence would add to Milan’s injury concerns. Alexis Saelemaekers is already sidelined after ankle surgery, with reports expecting him to miss at least five months.

Chukwueze has been a regular starter under Ruben Amorim this season. Milan will await the results of his assessment before determining how long he may be unavailable.
