Udinese-Milan, Gila, Rabiot and Moreira ruled out through injury: Amorim in emergency

Rabiot, Moreira and Gila ruled out for Sunday's trip to Udinese; Amorim forced to call up five Primavera players.

Milan face Udinese on Sunday at 20:45 without three key players. Adrien Rabiot is sidelined with right calf fatigue, Diego Moreira with left flexor fatigue, and Mario Gila with left ankle inflammation from overload. Combined with existing absences of Gabbia, Saelemaekers, Chukwueze and Terracciano, manager Ruben Amorim has been forced to promote five players from Milan's youth team for the trip. The injury crisis comes after a heavy Europa League defeat at Bournemouth and ahead of a demanding fixture list: a midweek home match against Bologna on 28 October, followed by the derby against Inter on 31 October, a European tie against Ferencvaros on 5 November, and a visit to Genoa on 8 November.
