Overview

- The right ankle injury did not improve with physiotherapy, prompting surgery in mid-December and a supervised rehabilitation program in Milan.
- His return is projected for mid-April, which would leave him with minimal time to impact the remainder of Milan’s 2025–26 season.
- Giménez has not played since October 28, when he exited a match against Atalanta with the injury.
- Mexico coach Javier Aguirre is already managing other injuries to Luis Chávez, Rodrigo Huescas, Jesús Orozco Chiquete and César Huerta, tightening selection options for the World Cup.
