“I am at the Milanello ground every day to work and hope to be ready for the Monza match, but we'll have to see with the coach and doctor if I am at 100 percent, because this is a risky injury for relapses.

“I had told the coach I wanted to play against Verona, but they warned me it is a dangerous injury and I listened to their advice."
