Revealed – How Inter Milan Fare Without Argentina Megastar Compared To Two Other First-Team Stalwarts | OneFootball

Runaway Serie A leaders Inter Milan have notoriously struggled in the absence of star center-forward Lautaro Martinez this season.

According to Corriere della Sera via FCInterNews, El Toro’s fitness issues have weighed heavily on the team’s attacking output.

Cristian Chivu has been without the talismanic Argentine striker since mid-February.

Indeed, Lautaro Martinez has missed Inter’s last four competitive matches due to a calf injury.

Furthermore, he is at risk of missing the upcoming Serie A clash against Fiorentina at Stadio Artemio Franchi.

Meanwhile, Inter have struggled without their most prolific striker, winning just once in those four games.

In addition to a string of poor results without Lautaro, Inter have been unable to find the net consistently.

For context, they averaged just under one goal per game during that disappointing four-match sequence.

On the other hand, they’ve enjoyed vast success without Denzel Dumfries, who has missed a large chunk of the season due to an ankle problem.

The same goes to Hakan Calhanoglu, who has experienced an injury-hit start to the calendar year.

Indeed, Piotr Zielinski has excelled in the Turkish midfielder’s absence, delivering a series of outstanding displays.
