Kevin Prince-Boateng had been a doubt throughout the week after the Ghanian midfielder was removed at halftime from AC Milan's Saturday match at Juventus. Boateng was kicked by Felipe Melo as the Brazilian followed-through on a first half shot. With Massimiliano Allegri already missing Gennaro Gattuso (suspension), Mark van Bommel (cup tied), Andrea Pirlo and Massimo Ambrosini (injuries) Prince's fitness is vital.
Tottenham Hotspur Vs. AC Milan: Kevin-Prince Boateng Should Start
Today, Milanistas can take some solace in Boateng’s expected return. Per the club’s website, Prince went through full training yesterday prior to the team’s flight to London. Today, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Boateng is expected to start in a wide midfield role, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robinho and Alexandre Pato comprising Allegri’s attack.
In the midfield along with Boateng, Allegri is likely to choose Clarence Seedorf and Mathieu Flamini, though moving Thiago Silva into midfield is another option. Alexander Merkel is also an option, as is the forgotten Rodney Strasser.
