The Portuguese winger suffered a flexor injury at the end of December during a Serie A match against Hellas Verona. He missed Friday’s semifinal against Juventus and is expected to be available against Inter tomorrow, although it’s unsure he’ll start.

On the other hand, centre-back Gabbia missed today’s training session due to a fever, and it remains to be seen if he will recover for tomorrow’s match.

Milan travelled to Riyadh for the Supercoppa without the injured Samuel Chukwueze, Noah Okafor and Alessandro Florenzi.

Inter also trained on Sunday and are expected to face Milan without the injured Marcus Thuram and Joaquin Correa.
