Milan defender Fikayo Tomori could miss Sunday’s huge game against Juventus after suffering a thigh problem in last night’s win over Napoli.

The English centre-back was forced off in the 80th minute of the Rossoneri’s 2-1 win over Antonio Conte’s side. Early reports from Sky have suggested that Tomori has suffered a strain in his right adductor muscle.

The reports also claim that if Massimiliano Allegri cannot use the Englishman against Juventus, summer signing (and former Bianconeri player) Koni De Winter will take his place in the starting eleven.

Tomori & Estupinan to miss Milan clash with Juventus

While Tomori looks set to miss Sunday’s game in Turin, Ecuadorian wing-back Pervis Estupinan will be absent through suspension.

Therefore, Allegri will have to rely some of his alternative options that will test his squad depth after a strong start to the 2025-26 season.

The Rossoneri soared to the top of the table after yesterday’s impressive victory over Napoli, with American forward Christian Pulisic taking the lead as the top scorer.
