This type of injury would usually require at least a couple of weeks out, more likely closer to a month, depending on the depth of the lesion.
It is the worst possible timing, coming ahead of a run of fixtures that will see the Rossoneri take on Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Napoli between Serie A and the Champions League.
Theo Hernandez and goalkeeper Mike Maignan are suspended for the top of the table showdown with Juventus.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Ismael Bennacer, Mattia Caldara and Rade Krunic are also struggling with injuries.
