MN: Tomori could return against Frosinone with check-up scheduled next week

By: Ben Dixon

Fikayo Tomori suffered a thigh tear against Bologna, and AC Milan are awaiting updates about his recovery. However, some good news has arrived.

The international break couldn’t have come at a better time for Tomori. It allows him to recover at Milanello without missing valuable training time with the team. Given 13 players have been called up this week, he’s hardly in a ‘proper’ environment currently.

So, it allows him the chance to work and potentially return at the same time as many of his teammates.

This morning, MilanNews have provided an update on Tomori’s injury, with the defender working at Milanello on recovery. In fact, he’s progressing well and ‘important news’ regarding his return is expected in the upcoming days.

Another check-up is scheduled for early next week to assess the progress of the injury recovery, and if that goes smoothly, he could begin training on the pitch again. It is possible, therefore, that he could be back on the pitch against Frosinone on November 22.

Given the shortness at the back, Ruben Amorim will have to balance the need to have him back and his ability to offer minutes. He can’t be rushed back, especially with the risk of worsening the injury.
