Simone Inzaghi has not ruled out Lautaro Martínez for tomorrow’s game against Barça, although he acknowledged at a press conference that the Argentine is not in an optimal state. Lautaro, with discomfort in the thigh of his left leg since the match against Roma, has passed medical tests and this afternoon he will train with his teammates. “He has a lot of muscular fatigue, we have done a medical exam and he will train this afternoon. We will evaluate it and make a decision on whether she can start, be a substitute or cannot play.“, he has indicated. He has confirmed the loss of Lukaku, as well as that of Brozovic.
The Italian coach has confirmed the ownership of André Onana, the Cameroonian goalkeeper who was trained in the Barça youth academy. So far, Handanovic is the starting goalkeeper in Serie A and Onana was in the first two Champions League games. “Onana will play. I choose game by game,” he limited himself to saying when asked if the goal needed stability.
The Inter coach has spoken about the match, praising Barça. “It will be a game of suffering. Complicated. Barça is a strong team, with a lot of quality. They recover the ball very high, in the rival field. It is the best in Europe in this aspect. They put a lot of pressure. It is a powerful team with the ball and without the ball. And they have Lewandowski, who is a great player“, he said, assuring that they have a great opportunity to take flight. “We are facing one of the best teams in Europe, a very complete team in all its lines, but at the same time the match is a great opportunity for us. We are Inter and the classification is open. We have to play with a lot of aggressiveness and determination.”
HER FUTURE
Inzaghi has also talked about his future. After two consecutive defeats, the Italian is being highly questioned and in Italy they point out that a couple of more bad results could mean his dismissal. “I don’t know anything about my future. We coaches depend on the results and it is normal for there to be doubts. It’s a club decision“, he explained, before denying that he would veto Dybala’s signing for Inter, as published by an Italian newspaper.
