Milan haven’t started the season well. Two points in the first three rounds of Serie A is their poor record at the start of Paulo Fonseca on his bench. The poor results were accompanied by controversies in which it was embroiled Rafael Leao (bad behavior in ultras in Parma and changing sides Theo Hernandez against Lazio) and now at the break for the national team matches the ‘FIFA virus’ which complicates the situation of Milan with a long-term loss.
The affected person is Ismaël Bennacerwho will be out for between three and four months after Milan confirmed in a statement that he is suffering from “severe damage to the medial gastrocnemius muscle of the right calf. In a week a special re-examination will be carried out to determine the best treatment for complete functional recovery”.

The Algerian midfielder was injured in training with the Algerian team. Ahead of Tuesday’s match in Liberia, which coincides with the qualifying phase for the 2025 Africa Cup, the ‘fennecs’ exercised on a synthetic playing field, which could have caused the calf fracture suffered by Bennacer.
The doctors, in the official record, did not specify the recovery time because the re-examination scheduled in a week is necessary to determine if Bennacer should be operated or if conservative therapy is chosen.
In other words, Fonseca until January, they lost a key player who suffered another blow after undergoing surgery in May 2023 for an injury to his right knee that sidelined him for six and a half months.
