He has made three substitute appearances so far this season having also battled a shoulder fracture.“Maddison is for sure a different player, a special player,” said De Zerbi. “But he has to be fit, he has to be in the right physical condition, because the Premier League intensity, even tonight, is incredible. And then we can play with eight attackers.”
