Wingback Crisis – Brazilian Flop Could Face His Last Chance To Salvage San Siro Career | OneFootball

It’s been a rough start to life at Inter Milan for Luis Henrique, whose future at the club is hanging by a thread. 

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the ongoing injury crisis could give the Brazilian one last chance to salvage his Nerazzurri career.

Signed from Olympique Marseille for a reported fee of €23 million, Luis Henrique arrived at San Siro with huge expectations.

However, the 23-year-old has failed to adapt to the new surroundings, quickly falling out of favor with Cristian Chivu.

Henrique has spent most of the early stages of his Inter career playing second fiddle to starting wingback Denzel Dumfries.

Yet, with the Dutchman now injured and Matteo Darmian still recovering from a thigh issue, Henrique may find himself called upon again.

Indeed, the emerging injury crisis could throw the former Botafogo star a lifeline.

Still, Chivu has trusted Carlos Augusto over the Brazilian ace, even though he is left-footed and less suited to operating on the right flank.
