Leao has been out of action since August 17, when he suffered a calf injury in a Coppa Italia match against Bari.

The Portuguese winger hasn’t featured in any Serie A match with Milan so far.

Milan will host Serie A leaders Napoli in the next league game on Sunday, September 28.

The Partenopei will surely be without their star defender, Alessandro Buongiorno, who suffered an adductor injury during the latest Serie A match against Pisa.

Only three points divide Milan and Napoli in the Serie A table, as Napoli have won four games from four, while the Rossoneri have collected three victories and one defeat.
