Inter relief at Thuram injury, but muscular issues becoming a problem
There is mixed news from the Inter medical staff, as while Marcus Thuram’s injury is not as serious as first feared, he is out of international duty along with Ange-Yoan Bonny and Aleksandar Stankovic.
The injuries have been piling up for the Nerazzurri and they are beginning to affect their international careers as well.
Thuram withdrew from the France squad for the Nations League matches against Italy and Belgium due to a hamstring issue.
Thuram injury not serious for Inter
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport and Sky Sport Italia, tests showed this is just a fatigue problem and there are no lesions, so Thuram hopes to be available when Serie A returns and Inter face Atalanta on November 22.
However, this is just the latest setback after Bonny pulled out for the Ivory Coast and Stankovic was forced to abandon the Serbia national team.
Lautaro Martinez, Luis Henrique, Benjamin Pavard, Curtis Jones and John Stones have been out for a while already leading up to this break, while Djed Spence is out of England’s Nations League fixture with Croatia tomorrow.
By calculating all the players in the squad, they have missed 15 of the first 37 competitive matches for Inter this season.
