After losing Yann Bisseck, Inter have another potential injury worry with news Henrikh Mkhitaryan had to abandon today’s training session.
The Nerazzurri are trying to shake off the Supercoppa Italiana defeat to Milan in Riyadh, a game they had been leading 2-0 only to capitulate 3-2 in stoppages.
Bisseck picked up an injury during that match and was today diagnosed with a muscular strain in the adductors of his left thigh.
Sky Sport Italia report that he could be out of action for 15-20 days.

Now it is reported that Mkhitaryan interrupted today’s training session early with a muscular issue and will require further testing tomorrow morning.
Considering Inter are in action on Sunday afternoon against Venezia at the Stadio Penzo, Mkhitaryan might not recover in time to start.
They are already missing Hakan Calhanoglu, Joaquin Correa and Francesco Acerbi, so losing the Armenia international too would leave them depleted.
Piotr Zielinski is likely to start in midfield, as Davide Frattesi is in negotiations for a potential transfer to Roma.
