The Rossoneri held another training session on Thursday ahead of the round 26 Serie A match at the San Paolo with Napoli.

The work-out got underway at midday on the central pitch with a warm-up which also included fitness drills with the use of the hurdles followed by exercises for the lower body.

The next phase of the session saw the players head indoors for some work in the gym before heading back outdoors for drills with the ball.

After running through passing, dribbling and shooting exercises, the players were divided into two groups for a possession game 6 v 6. The squad was then put through their paces with an attack versus defence drill.

Individuals: Ignazio Abate took part in the entire session with the rest of his team-mates. Romagnoli sat out because of a fever. Juraj Kucka did the passing drills with the rest of the squad, but mostly trained apart on an individual training programme centred around fitness drills.

Looking ahead to Friday, the Rossoneri will hold another training session at the same time of midday.
