Inter Vs AC Milan – Poland Midfielder Struggling With Minor Injury After Exhausting International Break | OneFootball

Inter Milan star Piotr Zielinski is reportedly dealing with a minor fitness problem ahead of Sunday’s Derby della Madonnina.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Polish midfielder will undergo further medical checks today.

Following an underwhelming first season at San Siro, Piotr Zielinski has rediscovered his touch this term.

Indeed, new manager Cristian Chivu has helped the 31-year-old regain confidence and get back on track.

Furthermore, the former Napoli star scored his first goal for Inter from open play in a 2-1 win at Hellas Verona earlier this month.

Despite seeing his screamer against Lazio disallowed for a handball in the build-up, Zielinski produced another impressive performance last time out.

Moreover, he scored a crucial winner for Poland in a 3-2 triumph over Malta on Monday, though he injured himself in the process.

Meanwhile, he returned to Appiano Gentile yesterday for a light training session, focusing on recovery.
