Inter Milan superstar seen in Inzaghi’s training routine ahead of Barcelona clash | OneFootball

The fitness of Lautaro Martinez has been the biggest question mark for Inter Milan heading into their all-important Champions League clash against Barcelona on Tuesday.

Following a 3-3 draw in the first leg of the semi-finals, both teams are desperate to secure a win at San Siro tomorrow. However, Inter suffered a massive blow when it was revealed that their star striker Lautaro had picked up a fresh injury.

Soon after the injury, there were countless reports ruling the Argentine out of the second-leg clash at San Siro.

However, Inter Milan appear to be growing optimistic about Lautaro’s fitness with each passing day. The player, for his part, is determined to return to full fitness ahead of the tie.

Now, in the latest indicator of Lautaro’s fitness, journalist Alvaro von Richetti now claims that the Argentine was seen in Simone Inzaghi’s training regime before the Barcelona clash.

Indeed, Martinez was seen operating alongside Marcus Thuram in Inzaghi’s training drill, whereas Yan Bisseck continued in place of Benjamin Pavard, who is said to have recovered from his physical issue as well.

This indicates that Martinez might be fit enough to conduct group training sessions and could, therefore, get the clearance to play against Barcelona tomorrow.

Even if the former Racing Club prodigy fails to start, his mere presence in the Inter Milan squad could serve as a real threat to the Catalans.

With 21 goals in all competitions this season, Martinez’s goal-scoring ability, coupled with his connection with Thuram upfront, could spell trouble for the Barça backline, which has appeared a bit porous of late.

With merely 24 hours left before the big clash, Barcelona will be keeping a close eye on Martinez’s fitness.
