Inter Milan Vs Atalanta – France Star Striker Under Scrutiny Amid Dreadful Run Of Form | OneFootball

Inter Milan star Marcus Thuram is expected to return to the starting lineup when Serie A top-four hopefuls Atalanta roll into town on Saturday.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Frenchman’s performance will be under the microscope amid his rough patch.

Marred by injuries and inconsistent performances, the 28-year-old has failed to make a lasting impact in Serie A this term.

For context, the former Borussia Monchengladbach center-forward has netted just seven league goals all season.

Therefore, he is facing the risk of failing to hit double digits for the first time in his third Serie A campaign.

Marcus Thuram to Face Scrutiny in Inter Milan vs Atalanta Clash

With Lautaro Martinez still in the pits, Cristian Chivu is desperate for Thuram to hit his stride.

Indeed, the French superstar has only scored once in Serie A over the past two months.

However, now would be a perfect time for him to get back on track, with Inter looking to bounce back from last Sunday’s defeat in the Milan derby.

Therefore, Chivu will pair Thuram up with Francesco Pio Esposito at the expense of his compatriot, Ange-Yoan Bonny.

Meanwhile, Denzel Dumfries could make his first league start since early November.
