Overview
- The Mexico striker entered in the 77th minute in Milan’s 3-2 home victory and picked up a yellow card.
- It was his first official appearance since Oct. 28, 2025, after a right-ankle injury that required mid-December surgery.
- He logged 13 minutes with four completed passes and limited involvement as he eases back to match fitness.
- During his absence, Milan reinforced the attack with Christopher Nkunku and winter signing Nicklas Füllkrug, tightening competition for minutes.
- The timing matters for coach Javier Aguirre’s World Cup decisions, as Giménez skipped March friendlies against Portugal and Belgium and now seeks club minutes to strengthen his case.
