Juventus and Milan stars involved in USA 1-1 Ecuador: Rossoneri injury concern

Juventus and Milan stars were involved in the 1-1 draw between the USMNT and Ecuador in the early hours of Saturday morning, but the Rossoneri have come away with an injury concern ahead of the Serie A clash against Fiorentina after the international break. 

Juve’s Weston McKennie and Milan’s Christian Pulisic, the only two Serie A representatives in the latest USA squad, were both involved for the friendly against Ecuador in Austin, Texas. McKennie played from the start, while Pulisic appeared as a second-half substitute. 

The Rossoneri also had left-back Pervis Estupinan involved, appearing in the starting line-up for Ecuador. 

Estupinan, however, was forced off before half-time with an injury to his ankle, which, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, puts him at risk for Ecuador’s upcoming friendly against Mexico, and Milan’s upcoming Serie A match against Fiorentina on October 19. 

The former Brighton defender had also missed his side’s last Serie A match, a 0-0 draw against Juventus, due to suspension.
