Saelemaekers to undergo ankle surgery: Milan winger news

Saelemaekers will undergo surgery on his right ankle after specialist consultation in Amsterdam; the Milan winger stopped training on September 29.

Alexis Saelemaekers has decided to have surgery on his right ankle, which was previously operated on in 2024. After a specialist consultation in Amsterdam on Monday, October 13, doctors recommended the procedure due to persistent pain and loss of stability. The operation was scheduled for Tuesday, October 13. Milan also faces another injury concern: defender Matteo Gabbia suffered a left thigh flexor injury in the Sassuolo match and will undergo specialist consultation to determine whether surgery or conservative treatment is needed; he will be sidelined for several months.
