"Goncalo Ramos does not have anything particularly serious," Ruben Amorim said through TuttoMercatoWeb, and the wider signs around Gonçalo Ramos are encouraging. He trained with the group on Friday and AC Milan now expect him to be available for the trip to Udinese on Sunday evening.
The injury update around Ramos
The calf issue has already been downgraded once. Tests came back negative, and the problem was described as muscle overload rather than a lesion, which is why the concern around his absence did not last long.
That still does not settle the football decision. Milan can list him as available, but they have not said he is certain to start in Udinese vs AC Milan.
The case for using him is obvious enough. Ramos has scored 2 goals in his last 5 club matches, and he delivered a 6.97 rating in his most recent league outing. Across 7 Serie A appearances this season, he has a 6.51 rating, which is steady rather than explosive, but good enough to suggest there is no obvious need to baby him if the staff think he is ready.
Milan's late decision
The caution still has some logic to it. Milan have 15 points from 7 Serie A matches and are unbeaten in 7 league games this season, so they are not in a position where they need to throw Ramos straight back in at any cost.
Udinese have 4 points from 7 Serie A matches, which only strengthens the sense that Milan can make the call on their own terms. A start remains undecided, but the striker's availability changes the shape of the selection debate before Sunday night.
