🇦🇷 Farewell to the Finalissima, Lautaro out for a month with Inter | OneFootball

Inter Milan has suffered a major blow at a crucial moment in the season.

After medical tests carried out this morning, it has been confirmed that Lautaro Martínez has a muscle injury in the soleus of his left leg. The "Nerazzurri" captain had to limp off during the Champions League match against Bodø/Glimt, setting off all the alarms at the Giuseppe Meazza.

The seriousness of the injury had already been anticipated by his coach, Cristian Chivu, who was pessimistic after the European match. The predictions have come true and the "Toro" will be out of action for approximately one month.

Goodbye to the Derby... and the Finalissima

The schedule is relentless and Lautaro's absence will be especially felt in the "Derby della Madonnina" against Milan. In addition to the big local clash, the Argentine will miss key fixtures such as the return leg against Bodø, the Coppa Italia semifinals against Como, and league matches against Genoa, Atalanta, and Fiorentina.

However, the blow also affects the Albiceleste. The injury prevents Lautaro Martínez from taking part in the Finalissima against Spain. The striker, a key player in Lionel Scaloni's system, will not be able to fight for this intercontinental title that pits the champions of the Copa América against those of the European Championship.
