Inter, Audero warms up: if Bento doesn’t arrive… Buchanan is waiting for a chance

Yann Sommer the only one absent when training resumed at Pinetina. This is the bulletin from Appiano Gentile, where yesterday theInter she found herself back on the field after the celebrations and the resulting two days off. The stoppage of the Swiss goalkeeper, let us immediately clarify, does not cause the slightest concern: a little fever, the former Bayern player could return to work as early as today. It is possible, however, that he will still be rested at Sassuolo, while both Acerbi and Dimarco will certainly be absent: especially for the former, who also publicly announced his decision to stop, a little more time will be needed.

The second one heats up. In short, Sommer’s conditions have a relative weight on the chances of Emil Audero to take the field in the next four matchdays, obviously starting from the next one against Sassuolo. If anything, the considerations go in two directions. The first: if Sommer misses even one match between now and the end of the season, he will not be able to beat the clean sheet record currently held by Buffon and Provedel. The second: Audero deserved some space. They go against each other, Inzaghi has the other choice. Furthermore, the redemption of the former Sampdoria, which will not become mandatory, is not a scenario to be completely discarded. It is linked to the offensive for Bento: should he fail, in Viale della Liberazione it would make sense to opt for the confirmation of the second of this season, with a view to touching the group as little as possible.

And TJ? He is also there to claim some space in Inzaghi’s squad Tajon Buchanan. Without creating cases that don’t exist, but the story is well known: having arrived in a hurry at the beginning of January to act as an alternative to Dumfries on the right, the Canadian has so far had to settle for parts of the match, which were all played on the left. That’s where the coach evidently sees him: with Dimarco still in the box at least as a precaution and Carlos Augusto also considered in Bastoni’s place, it’s not out of the question that he could find space from the first minute, perhaps already with Sassuolo.
