RUI COSTA OUT FOR 40 DAYS

MANUEL RUI COSTA has announced that he will be out for 40 days due to the broken arm he suffered on his Milan debut against Brescia.

The summer signing from Fiorentina said he is in a hurry to get back and play for the Rossoneri, after being on the field just minutes into the game at Brescia that ended as a 2-2 draw.

Fot the time being Rui Costa is set to be replaced by Andrea Pirlo in the heart of Milan midfield.

Coach Fatih Terim admitted his side had some problems without Rui Costa.

"Probably I have made some mistakes, but it has not been easy to know without the Portuguese man," Terim said. "In the second half we played a better football and so we got the draw."
