Alexis Saelemaekers will not be available against Wales. The Belgian Football Association announced this on their various social media channels.
But what is he really bothered by? According to the well-known Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, if the first information is confirmed, it would be a muscle tear.
His participation in AC Milan’s next two matches therefore seems uncertain. He could miss the match against Fiorentina on Sunday, October 19, and possibly also the match against Pisa on Friday, October 24.
Bad news for AC Milan
AC Milan are awaiting the results of medical examinations to confirm the severity of the Red Devil’s injury. His absence would of course be a setback for the Italian club, as the winger had become a regular since the start of the season.
Since the start of the 2025-2026 season, Alexis Saelemaekers has always been in the starting line-up. Thanks to his strong performance, he managed to retain his place.
For example, he scored on September 28 in AC Milan’s victory against Kevin De Bruyne’s Napoli. After just three minutes, the Belgian gave his team the lead. Hopefully this injury won’t stop his excellent form.
