Ante Rebic could be starting upfront for AC Milan in their first Serie A game of the season against Udinese on Saturday, a report claims.
As has been reported by Calciomercato.com, the physical issues that Olivier Giroud is suffering could result in a start as the main striker for Croatian forward Rebic.
He tends to rotate with Rafael Leao on the left side of the attack but he is able to play in the centre. Milan do have more depth in that area this season thanks to the signing of Divock Origi but he will not be fit to start.
Marko Lazetic is not being allowed to leave the club on loan until Origi has returned to fitness which means that he could get some minutes against the Friulians on Saturday evening at San Siro.
The chances of him starting are extremely low but he is expected to be named on the bench.
