Head coach Stefano Pioli has had to make use of virtually every player in his squad at least once this season amid a demanding schedule, but there are still plenty who have not started a game.
According to this morning’s edition of Corriere dello Sport (via PianetaMilan), there are 12 players players who have not yet started a single game in any competition this season, and you can even make a line-up with them.
Goalkeepers Ciprian Tatarusanu (who will have to replace the injured Mike Maignan) and Antonio Mirante are on the list, with defenders Sergino Dest, Fode Ballo-Touré, Malick Thiaw and Matteo Gabbia also present.
Tiemoue Bakayoko, Aster Vranckx and Yacine Adli are the midfielders that are yet to appear from the first minutes, with forwards Marko Lazetic, Divock Origi and Zlatan Ibrahimovic completing the list.
With the fixture list to get even more demanding after the international break, it is likely that a few of the above will tick off first starts.
