The AC Milan squad resumed training at Milanello this afternoon in view of Saturday’s game against Udinese at the Stadio Friuli.

According to what was reported by Sky (via MilanNews), Zlatan Ibrahimovic was present at the training ground today. The Swede attended the session as the squad continued preparing for their match at the weekend.

Good news arrived regarding the condition of both Olivier Giroud and Alessandro Florenzi. The Frenchman has returned to training after having recovered from the flu he has been battling for the last few days, while the Italian also returned to training with the group.

Therefore, both the striker and the full-back will be available to Stefano Pioli for Saturday’s fixture, in which Milan will look to rack up their fourth consecutive win in Serie A and put a bit more pressure on the teams above them.

This is Milan’s probable line-up against Udinese: Maignan; Calabria, Kjaer, Gabbia, Theo Hernandez; Loftus-Cheek, Adli, Reijnders; Pulisic, Giroud, Leao.

It was reported this morning that Ibrahimovic’s presence could well help Rafael Leao who is without a league goal for 80 days. He is helping the winger with a few things on the training ground, in a bid to get him back to full confidence.
