Inter: Simone Inzaghi risks losing a big man for the challenge against Juventus

A new tegola at Inter: Alessandro Bastoni is in danger of not being able to take part in the challenge against Juventus due to fever. This was announced by Simone Inzaghi in a press conference: “He is to be evaluated because he had a fever last night and could not train today. A coach would like to have all the arrows at his disposal, but unfortunately this is not always the case.”

The Nerazzurri coach will also have to do without Lukaku and D’Ambrosio: “The two of them will not be there. Romelu will have an exam next week, however, I think I have no hope for the last game. Sorry for the boy, in these 60 days he has worked so hard to be there and unfortunately at this moment we could not use him, in the Champions League we did not have him and we will wait for him. Brozovic? He is a very important player in our economy, in these two days he has amazed me with the way he has worked. I don’t think he will start from the beginning, however we will see how the game goes and I am happy because he is a fundamental player for us. He is an absence that has been talked about very little fortunately thanks to his teammates but we hope to be able to use him at his best in the games until the break.”

He then looked ahead to Juventus: “We know the match what it represents, it is the derby of Italy and a game very much felt by fans and clubs. We know that we find a healthy opponent, who like Inter have won four of the last five matches. We know what difficulties there will be, we will find a team on the upswing and a hot stadium. We know how important it is but we also know that there are 25 games to go, in a week there will be the World Cup break and then there will be more than one round. We know how important it is, but we also know how much is left until the end. Tomorrow is very important for both of us, that’s for sure.”

“We will have to move, have mobility because Juve have very good defenders and alternate between the two phases, they have moments when they come for you and others when they come down as a team. We have seen the data, we will have to be good at ball possession because they can defend well as a team. We know that we find a team that came out of the Champions League, it will be even more poisoned. I have great respect for Allegri, he has won and always manages to bring out the best in his teams. We will have to have a great race of running, quality and attention. We will also have to have great personality,” Inzaghi commented.
