MILAN – The team have started training with a warm-up on the central pitch.

MILAN – Mark Hately was one of the stars of the derby on Sunday as the Milan curva dedicated their choreography to the former striker. In response to this sign of affection Hately said: “It was a bug surprise for me, I was with Bein Sports commentating froma studio, we were waiting for the players to come on and then this huge image appeared from the Milan end. It was marvellous, everybody around me was watching me and I got quite emotional.”

MILAN – The team will train at 12.00 today before leaving for Palermo at 16.00.

MILAN – This Wednesday’s league encounter between Palermo-Milan will mark the 11th match between the two teams at the Barbera since the year 2005.In this fixture last season, played on Easter Saturday, Alessio Cerci was on target in what was his only goal during his time with the Rossoneri jersey.Three years prior, and in October 2012, the club captain Riccardo Montolivo opened his account for Milan in a 2-2 draw against the Rosanero.In March 2012 meanwhile, Zlatan Ibrahimovic netted his last hat-trick for the club in a 4-0 victory at the Barbera.From 2007-2011, the Barbera proved to be an unhappy hunting ground for Milan losing 4 years in a row. In the past three meetings though, the Rossoneri have overturned the trend, winning twice and drawing once.
