Sky Italia via MilanNews.it are reporting that AC Milan right winger Alexis Saelemaekers has recovered faster than expected from his ankle injury. The Belgium international missed out on the Europa League game in mid week against LOSC Lille but has reportedly trained with the team yesterday morning hence could possibly be available for the tie against Fiorentina this weekend. Saelemaekers picked up the knock against Napoli last weekend as the 21 year old drove down the right wing for Milan. The youngster has been Stefano Pioli's top choice ahead of Samu Castillejo because of his high work rate and his solid coverage both in the attacking and defensive phases of the game. Milan have a tough game ahead as they will still be missing Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Rafael Leao to injuries.
