As La Gazzetta dello Sport recall, Matteo Gabbia and Samuele Ricci took over the role of 'hosts' at Milanello for the Italian national team, who were based there before the game against Norway. They boarded a bus not with a Milan logo on the side but with the FIGC logo, heading to San Siro. It is a peculiar situation in itself, especially a week before the derby.
At the moment, rumours of a return are swarming Sandro Tonali and AC Milan. This week, he will return, albeit in a different sense. During the last international break, talk of a move back to Italy began to heat up, with the midfielder meeting his agent, Beppe Riso, in Milano of all places. Since then, it has been non-stop, with suggestions that all parties want a return.
