MILANELLO - Here is the situation of the injured Rossoneri players as explained this morning by Milan's Club Doctor Massimo Manara, who spoke to Milan Channel's microphones at Milanello:
KAKÁ AND FLAMINI: regarding Kaká we are making some checks and we have to complete the medical visits while Flamini suffered a trauma to his left ankle on Saturday, which also left some damage to his ligaments. We hope to have both of them back for next Sunday, but we will see how it goes in the next days.
GATTUSO: he was subjected to the surgery to reconstruct his ligament; the recovery times are those which were predicted. Only the ligament was reconstructed, for the rest everything seems fine.
NESTA: There is good news from America, but we are awaiting to see the player. Alessandro has started running these days, but we have to wait to see what the situation is after 28 December, when the group will reunite at Milanello to depart for Dubai.
BONERA: he was operated the other day to remove his hernia. Now he will follow the post-operation program. The lad should be ready to start the preparation, at least partially, in Dubai, before completing it and be ready for the team in the new year.
BORRIELLO: he is following a rehabilitation process after the muscular lesion he suffered.
