In all likelihood, Milan Škriniar will not be a starting in tomorrow’s Serie A opener away at the Mapei Stadium against Sassuolo.

The Slovakian central defender has started working with the group today, but then continued the rest of the training session on his own Sky Sport 24 reports. According to the report, Miranda and De Vrij will be the starting central defenders in tomorrow’s game.

Vrsaljko and Perisic will be called but they will not be starters because they are still recovering from their world cup run. The report goes on to state that Matteo Politano, who is on loan from Sassuolo, will be a starting on the wing.

Lautaro Martinez, who is one of the most eagerly anticipated Summer signings, could also start in place of Radja Nainggolan, who still has not trained with his teammates as he is recovering from his injury. The Belgian is aiming to return to the field in time for the game against Torino.
