Donnarumma to miss Milan-Genoa

Asmir Begovic proved he is a reliable goalkeeper in the match with Fiorentina and is expected to replace the injured Gianluigi Donnarumma for Milan-Genoa.

During the match against Fiorentina, Gianluigi Donnarumma had to leave the pitch in the second half because of an ankle problem suffered early in the first half after a clash with Chiesa. Nothing serious for the Rossoneri goalkeeper but he will miss Sunday’s home match against Genoa.

The ankle sprain is minor and we are still in the middle of the week, so Donnarumma still has a chance to recover in time for the match against Genoa but the Rossoneri don’t want to take risks and speed up the time, possibly risking a worse problem and the injury becomes more serious reports La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Also because the next match of AC Milan is the second leg of the Coppa Italian semi-final against Juventus (1-1 the result at San Siro). A challenge that coach Stefano Pioli would like to face with Gigio Donnarumma regularly between the posts.

Stefano Pioli does not want to take any risks and therefore, on Sunday, Asmir Begovic is expected to start. It would be the first minute debut of Begovic who in the match with Fiorentina made many saves confirming that he is still a reliable goalkeeper.

An absolutely positive and convincing performance that of the Bosnian goalkeeper who almost saved the penalty of Pulgar. Begovic joined AC Milan in January on loan for the remaining of the season after Reina’s departure.
