The Italian Serie A club AC Milan has confirmed the departure of midfielder Tijjani Reijnders from their squad.
Reijnders, who joined AC Milan in 2019, made his debut for the club in the 2018-19 season and has since become one of the club's most valuable players.
However, it is reported that the 25-year-old has suffered a knee ligament injury and will miss the rest of the season.
Reijnders' absence will be felt by both the team and fans alike as he was a key player in their success during the previous campaign.
He scored four goals in all competitions last season and was instrumental in helping AC Milan to reach the Champions League semi-finals.
His departure comes after the club announced the signing of new midfield reinforcements in the summer,Campeonato Brasileiro Direct with several other top players joining them from different clubs.
The loss of Reijnders will leave a void in the midfield and could potentially impact the team's performance going forward.
It remains to be seen how AC Milan will cope without their star player, but there are already some concerns about their ability to compete at the highest level this season.
Despite the setback, AC Milan has shown great resilience and determination throughout the season, and they remain confident that they can bounce back and deliver another successful campaign next season.
