Defender Fikayo Tomori of Milan has fallen prey to the infirmary. Medical examinations have revealed an injury to his knee tendon.
The estimated recovery time for the Frenchman is a minimum of two months. This information has been disclosed by the official website of journalist Alfredo Pedulla.
Tomori sustained this injury during a Serie A match against Salernitana (2:2). Interestingly, Fikayo netted a goal against Salernitana, marking his third goal this season across 22 matches in all competitions.
Milan faces significant defensive troubles due to the injury epidemic. Tomori is now the fourth player in this role to be sidelined due to injury. He joins Malik Tshau, Pierre Kalulu, and Marco Pellegri in the infirmary.
Previously, reports surfaced that the Rossoneri aim to secure the signings of two central defenders in January due to the ongoing circumstances.
The Rossoneri currently hold third place in the Serie A standings after completing 17 matches, accruing a total of 33 points. Stefano Pioli's squad failed to advance to the Champions League playoffs, securing third place in their group.
