Former Barcelona Goalkeeper To Be Given Chance For Inter Milan In Coppa Italia Clash With Torino | OneFootball

Cristian Chivu is preparing to rotate his goalkeepers again, with Josep Martinez set to start for Inter against Torino in the Coppa Italia.

The plan reflects the coach’s intention to manage his options between the posts.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Yann Sommer has regained confidence after his recent response performances.

Following a difficult outing against Pisa, the decision to stick with the Swiss goalkeeper has paid off.

His key intervention against Borussia Dortmund drew comparisons with an earlier decisive save in Amsterdam, which also helped him rediscover rhythm and assurance.

Sommer is expected to remain in goal for the upcoming Serie A match against Cremonese, a fixture Chivu has described as hugely important.

However, the rotation policy will resume shortly after.

The Coppa Italia tie with Torino next week should mark Martinez’s return to action.

The Spanish goalkeeper has fully recovered from his ankle issue and is now ready to make his first appearance of 2026.

Chivu reportedly wants to give Martinez continuity as well.

If he performs well, further opportunities could follow, including a possible start against Sassuolo.

The staff view this period as crucial in evaluating the depth and reliability of the squad across all competitions.
