Inter Milan: Injury Concerns for Thuram and Arnautovic Before Juventus Match

Inter Milan secured a victory against Fiorentina, but the win came with some concerns about player fitness. With a crucial match against Juventus approaching, the team hopes to have a full squad available. This is especially important as Inter is just emerging from a challenging period where key players like Calhanoglu and Acerbi were sidelined.

After the match, attention focused on three players:

1. Alessandro Bastoni, who was seen with an ice pack on his thigh while on the bench.
2. Marcus Thuram, who left the field after about 20 minutes due to an ankle contusion.
3. Marco Arnautovic, who replaced Thuram but was later substituted due to muscle fatigue in his thigh.

While no official statements have been released about the players’ conditions, initial reports provide some reassurance. Bastoni appears to be fine with no significant issues detected. For Thuram, there seems to be no major concern; his ankle is sore from the impact, and he may require some personalized training sessions, but his participation in the Juventus match is not in doubt.

Arnautovic’s situation requires more careful evaluation. He experienced muscle overload, and further assessments will be made to determine if specific examinations are needed to evaluate any potential problems.

The team has a rest day before resuming training, where each case will be individually assessed. Inter Milan’s medical staff will work to ensure optimal player fitness for the upcoming critical fixture against Juventus.
