Kevin Boateng could miss Milan's Uefa Champs League trip to Spurs

Kevin-Prince Boateng in an aerial tussle with a Juventus player
Kevin-Prince Boateng could miss AC Milan’s trip to Tottenham Hotspur in the Uefa Champions League after he left the Olimpico against Juventus on Saturday night on crutches.
The Rossoneri will attempt to overturn their 1-0 first leg defeat in the round of 16 tie on Wednesday and Boateng had been a favourite to start against his former club.
However, he limped off at half-time during last night’s 1-0 victory away.
Boateng accidentally clashed with Felipe Melo, receiving a very hard kick to the ankle, which seemed to twist in an unnatural fashion.
He carried on playing for a few more minutes, but was replaced at the break and seems to be in poor shape.
There’s a race against time to get the Ghana international fit for Wednesday’s match at White Hart Lane.
Antonio Cassano, Mark Van Bommel and Urby Emanuelson are cup-tied, while Alexandre Pato and Massimo Oddo missed the Juventus game with flu symptoms.
Dutchman Clarence Seedorf could be given a starting spot in midfield instead.

Let’s image our foreign base players playing for our local team before retiring from football.. Not for the money but how it’s gonna help our league and local base players too. Like the Ronaldo’s and co. I pray and hope this comes true someday… Amen
he needs 2 be careful becos italian football is full aggressiveness
All Ghanaian’s wish Kelvin a speedy recovery .
He will be fine, the fact that he played on till half time tells me he will be available against SPURS. It was just a precautionary measure on the part of MILAN.
