Inter, Acerbi out: hamstring strain and a one-month break expected

The first injury report for Inter concerns Francesco Acerbi, who was forced to leave the field in the 29th minute of the first half during the match against Ekitike. The defender suffered a muscle strain in the hamstring of his right thigh after a sprint to catch up with an opponent, forcing Chivu to replace him immediately.

Clinical and instrumental examinations, conducted at the Humanitas Institute in Rozzano, confirmed the muscle problem. While awaiting a more precise assessment of the injury's severity, initial indications suggest a break of at least one month, which will force Acerbi to miss the last two Serie A 2025 matches against Genoa and Atalanta, the Italian Super Cup semifinal on December 19 against Bologna, and the potential final on December 22.

The injury will also affect the early days of 2026, with Acerbi at risk of missing matches against Bologna, Parma, and Napoli (January 4, 7, and 11). For Chivu, this means having to redesign the defensive line and consider alternative solutions in view of a critical period in the season, where every match will be decisive for Inter's national and international goals.
