Ancelotti sweats on skipper
Captain Paolo Maldini is the main doubt for AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti for tomorrow’s Champions League semi-final second-leg match with Manchester United.
Kakha Kaladze, available again after suspension, is the obvious replacement if Maldini fails to recover from the knee injury he sustained at Old Trafford and has prevented him from training normally since.
Ancelotti admits the 38-year-old skipper, who made his first team debut for the Rossoneri in 1985 as a 16-year-old, has only a slim chance of playing.
Another of the walking wounded from the first leg, midfielder Gennaro Gattuso, is available after recovering from a foot injury and the Milan coach has all his regulars available barring the cup-tied Ronaldo.
Ancelotti has indicated Filippo Inzaghi rather than Alberto Gilardino will play up front.
