After Lautaro Martínez's early exit due to an injury against Bodo Glimt, in the 3-1 defeat in the Champions League, Inter finally issued a medical report, confirmed that he underwent tests, and brought reassurance after his coach, Cristian Chivu, described the injury as "serious."
The Nerazzurri confirmed that the Bull underwent medical tests that revealed a "strain in the soleus of the left leg." They indicated that he will be re-evaluated next week, although in the meantime, he will undergo platelet treatment and is expected to return to training in about 18 days. Thus, his presence in the Finalissima is not at risk.
Initially, there was fear that the injury was more significant, as Chivu was very pessimistic when communicating what happened after the defeat. There, the Romanian indicated that the injury was "serious," which set off all the alarms, even within the Albiceleste's coaching staff.
Finally, the reality indicates that, at most, Martínez will be out of competition for 21 days, so he will still have up to 14 days to get back in shape football-wise before the match against Spain in Qatar. For Inter, however, the outlook is different, as they will likely lose him for the rematch with Bodo Glimt, the head-to-head with Como in the Coppa Italia, and the derby against Milan in Serie A.
