Raphael Leau is forced to miss the first match of the series A of the new season 2025/26. Milan’s forward was damaged in the Italian Cup match against Bari, where Rosmoniera won with a score of 2: 0.

The Portuguese opened the score in the game, but within a few minutes after the goal left the field due to discomfort in the calf. According to Janluki Di Marzio, medical examinations have confirmed that the injury is not serious, but it is enough that Leau could not play against Kremese in the first round of Series A, which will take place in the nearest Saturday.

Milan’s doctors will monitor the condition of a 26-year-old player every day, and he can return to the field in the second round against Lechche.

In the absence of Leau, the coaching staff of Massimiliano, Allegri, considers options with Christian Pulishich, Samuel Chukweze, Alexis Saelier, or Young Musa.
