Inter coach Inzaghi received some very unwelcome news in training today.

32-year-old Dutch international defender Stefan de Vrij pulled out of today’s session early. This was due to a fitness issue.

Therefore, it is looking very unlikely that de Vrij will be available against Como tomorrow.

The Dutchman has started in most of Inter’s matches in December. Inzaghi has played a back three of he, Alessandro Bastoni, and Yann Bisseck with Benjamin Pavard and Francesco Acerbi injured.

However, Inzaghi won’t be able to go with that trio against Como tomorrow.

Alessandro Bastoni To Start In Centre Of Inter Back Three Vs Como

With de Vrij out, Inzaghi is dealing with a full-blown defensive injury crisis.

Having both the Dutchman and Acerbi on the sidelines means that the Nerazzurri coach does not have either of the natural options at the centre of the back three at his disposal.

That does not mean that there are no players who can play there.

Yann Bisseck started in the centre of the back three against Udinese in the Coppa Italia. Matteo Darmian started on the right.

But according to Sky, it will not likely be the German reprising that role. Rather, he will play on the right of the back three.

Instead, the broadcaster anticipate, Alessandro Bastoni will shift to the centre.

Then, Carlos Augusto will start on the left of Inter’s back three.
