AC Milan defender Strahinja Pavlovic has been cleared of any significant injury following a medical evaluation, providing a boost to the club after he was substituted during international duty. Medical tests confirmed that the Serbian international did not suffer any lesions, ruling out a long-term absence.
Medical clearance after international substitution
The 23-year-old center-back was withdrawn from the pitch after 71 minutes of play during Serbia’s recent international fixture. Initial reports from outlets including SempreMilan and Milanreports indicated that the defender requested to be substituted due to physical fatigue, sparking concern regarding his availability for upcoming club matches.
Following the match, the player underwent medical checks to assess the severity of his condition. According to reporting from Goal.com, these examinations confirmed that there were no muscle lesions, characterizing the issue strictly as minor fatigue. This diagnosis effectively ends speculation that Pavlovic might face a prolonged recovery period.
Impact on AC Milan’s defensive rotation
Reports from Calciomercato, as cited by SempreMilan, noted that the club had been concerned about the defender’s status given the intensity of the upcoming domestic and European schedule.
Availability for upcoming fixtures
While the absence of lesions is a positive development, his participation in the immediate future remains subject to ongoing assessment. Reports circulating prior to the medical confirmation suggested that the defender might be at risk of missing upcoming matches, including the fixture against Germany, due to the fatigue levels reported after the Netherlands match.
With the medical clearance now official, the focus shifts to his return to training.
