Dumfries out with ankle injury, to miss Milan derby, Chivu seeks options | OneFootball

The derby between Inter and Milan is approaching, and an important update has arrived from the Nerazzurri’s medical staff. Inter will have to do without a key player on the right flank.

Dumfries out: ankle problem, will miss the derby against Milan. Chivu studies the alternatives

Denzel Dumfries will not be available for the upcoming derby against Milan. The Dutch winger experienced discomfort in his ankle during recent training sessions, and the medical staff has decided not to risk him for the San Siro clash.

The player had already shown signs of pain in the last league match, and despite targeted treatments and gym work, his ankle has not fully healed. For this reason, the decision to leave him out of the squad was made cautiously, to avoid complications that could prolong his absence. In his place, the most natural solution will be Carlos Augusto, who has already been used regularly and is ready to provide pace and coverage on the right flank. His versatility will allow Inzaghi to maintain tactical balance even without the Dutchman. Dumfries’ absence represents a significant change for the Nerazzurri lineup, but the team aims to maintain intensity and aggressiveness. The hope is that the winger will be available again in the coming matches, once he has completed his recovery.
