Spence Returns to Group Training but Misses Roma Trip

Inter defender Djed Spence has recovered from his muscular problem and has been training with the group in recent days, though he will remain unavailable for Saturday’s clash with Roma.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Spence’s return to full training sessions marks a genuine step forward after a spell on the sidelines, as previously detailed in SempreInter’s coverage of his recovery timeline.

Fitness Work Continues During the Break

Despite rejoining the group, Spence is not yet considered ready for competitive minutes. Di Marzio’s report makes clear he will continue to work on his fitness even as he trains alongside his teammates, with the international break offering a window to keep ramping up without match pressure.

That means Saturday’s trip to face Roma comes too soon. Inter will have to wait a little longer before Spence is fully up to speed physically.

Diouf Filling the Void on the Right

In Spence’s continued absence, Andy Diouf has been starting on the right wing as of late, and by all accounts producing good returns for Inter. His form gives the club a reliable stopgap while the Englishman completes his physical build-up, a point worth noting given the expectations that surrounded Spence’s arrival at Inter as a long-term option on that flank.

For now, the priority is straightforward: get Spence fully sharp before throwing him back into competitive action. His group-training return is encouraging, but Inter appear content to let the break do its work rather than rush him back against Roma.
