Kyle Walker suffers injury blow after playing through muscular problem in Champions League play-off exit - with ex-Man City star set to miss key AC Milan fixtures

Milan were knocked out of Europe by Feyenoord and look set to suffer another loss, with Walker likely to be absent for at least this weekend's league game with Torino. He has missed training this week and could also be ruled out of the midweek trip to Bologna.

Walker has made six appearances for his new club since signing on loan from Manchester City in January. Any injury is a particular blow considering he is only with the club temporarily until the end of the season - although reports suggest Walker will leave City permanently this summer, with a €5m option included in the deal to make his San Siro stay permanent

Milan now face an injury crisis at right-back with former Tottenham defender Emerson Royal also on the sidelines. According to Calciomercato, Alex Jimenez is set to start there against Torino.

Milan face a battle to qualify for Europe next season, sitting seventh in the table heading into the weekend's matches. They need their best players fit as often as possible to give themselves a chance of cutting the five-point gap to fourth.
