Trying to come back
Modric (face) has been spotted at the training center eight days after surgery, even though he's been prescribed to rest for a couple of weeks, and will try to recover from one of the last two games, La Gazzetta dello Sport informed.
Analysis: Modric hasn't been cleared at this stage, but he could make some bench appearances to support his teammates. His availability down the stretch might hinge on whether Milan still have something to play for or if they clinch a top-four finish early.
Set for surgery due to fracture
Modric has been diagnosed with a left cheekbone surgery that will require surgery, Milan announced.
Analysis: Modric will miss the final four matches of the season and return in the World Cup, wearing a mask, as he'll need five to six weeks to make a full recovery. La Gazzetta dello Sport relayed. Ardon Jashari and Samuele Ricci will fill in for him in the midfield down the stretch. He closes a solid campaign with two goals, three assists, 50 chances created and 111 crosses (29 accurate) in 33 appearances.
