Pierre Kalulu has once again found himself sidelined due to a significant injury sustained during Milan’s recent victory over Hellas Verona. The 23-year-old French defender has been plagued by injuries throughout the season, starting with a muscle problem that caused him to miss five matches early on. Shortly after his return, he suffered a thigh muscle tear, sidelining him for over four months.
Despite making a comeback in Milan’s win against Empoli at the beginning of March, Kalulu’s hopes were dashed when he had to leave the field at halftime during the Verona match on Sunday. Medical tests conducted today confirmed that he has injured the medial collateral ligament in his right knee. While surgery is not required, he will be out of action for several weeks.
It is anticipated that Kalulu will be sidelined for a period of four to six weeks, potentially causing him to miss crucial matches against Fiorentina, Lecce, and Sassuolo, as well as the Europa League fixture against Roma.
