Federico Dimarco worries Inter. The left-back will have to stay out of action for a while and will miss at least the Nerazzurri’s next match, the Champions League clash with a taste of revenge against Manchester City. The player has in fact suffered a Muscle strain in the right thigh flexors which puts him out of the game for the match against the Citizens and in doubt for Sunday’s derby against Milan. Dimarco will be re-evaluated today: Inzaghi’s final decision will come after the final training session at Appiano Gentile and before the team’s departure, but even in the event of improvements and a call-up, his use in England seems very difficult. One between Carlos Augusto and Darmian is ready.
Is Lautaro a problem?
Other concerns, not from a physical point of view, come from Lautaro Martinez who was again left dry against Monza last Sunday and his path in the current season tells of zero goals and zero assists scored in 225 minutes played with the Nerazzurri in Serie A. And it is not a question limited to this start, if we rewind the tape a bit.
Straddling this football season and the last one, we can see how Lautaro’s fasting started a long time ago. In fact, since the arrival of spring and the warm season: from March onwards, the Argentine centre-forward has in fact scored just 1 goal with the Inter shirt (a different story with the national team, where for example he was the best scorer in the Copa America won by Argentina), and not even a very influential one, given that it was the fourth of the 5-0 with which the Nerazzurri overwhelmed Frosinone at home in the last tournament. Around him, for six months now, there has been darkness.
