"Estupinan's absence tonight is due to a 'high-risk factor'. The wing-back suffered a sprained ankle with his national team, one he previously underwent surgery on, and thus his injury is being treated with 'maximum caution' from the staff. This is evidently to avoid any risk of re-injuring an ankle that has already undergone major surgery. The Rossoneri's priority is to ensure the player's full recovery and long-term stability, rather than rushing his return for a single match."
"Allegri doesn't want to run the slightest risk of losing the Ecuador international for a longer period, especially at a crucial point in the season when every point is crucial to maintaining the top spot in the table. Despite tonight's exclusion, Estupiñán already has a specific goal in mind for his return: the former Brighton man hopes to be available for Tuesday's away match for Atalanta, which is certainly a big game."
