Inter Milan is currently facing worries about the fitness of Federico Dimarco and Marcus Thuram. These injuries are causing concerns about their availability for upcoming international matches.
Federico Dimarco, the left-back, is out with a muscle injury. He has already missed recent games, including the Champions League matches against Feyenoord. His absence has forced coach Simone Inzaghi to change his defensive tactics.
Marcus Thuram, a forward, has been playing with a persistent ankle problem since early February. He has needed painkillers and injections to keep playing.
Coach Inzaghi mentioned that Thuram’s injury has limited his training and performance. He has started only two of the last six games.
Inter’s Concerns about Dimarco and Thuram’s Health During International Break
The approaching international break is creating a problem for Inter. Both Dimarco and Thuram could be called up to their national teams. Inter is concerned that playing for their countries might slow down their recovery, especially with a busy schedule of important league and European games coming up.
According to reports, Inter’s management intends to talk with the Italian and French football associations to discuss this situation.
Inter wants to negotiate for Dimarco and Thuram to be excused from international duty. This would give them the time they need to recover and get back to full fitness.
This arrangement would benefit both Inter and the national teams, ensuring the players are in top condition for future games. However, Inter knows that the final decision rests with the football federations.
