MILAN – Following a fitness-based session earlier on Friday (click here to read more), the players were back out on the central pitch at Milanello at 15.00 for a technical-based training session.
The session started with a warm-up which included jogging and stretching and was then followed by a focus on technical drills. The first of these was focused on passing and the players went through the passing drills with the use of the metal mannequins.
Friday’s training session then continued with a possession drill 9 v 9 with a free-floating player that switched between the side that was in possession. Rami, De Sciglio and Abate took part in the entire session with the rest of the group.
Individuals: Mexes and Bonera worked out in the gym.
The rossoneri will train again on Saturday morning at 11.30 as they continue with their preparations ahead of Tuesday’s Serie A match against Sassuolo at the San Siro.
