According to Milan Sport, there was concern about Inter’s squad for the opening match of Serie A after four players sustained injuries. But the latest test results have given the reigning Serie A champions reason for optimism, with two injured forwards set to return ahead of schedule.
Iranian striker Taremi joined Inter Milan this summer on a free transfer from Porto, and he has been one of the most impressive players in the Nerazzurri’s pre-season friendlies, scoring five goals and providing an assist in his first three appearances. Last week, Taremi missed training due to a muscle injury, and initial forecasts predicted that he would be out for around three weeks, missing the first match of Serie A and possibly the second. However, the latest test results show that his recovery is going well, and he will be back in training next Tuesday, and will be fit for the start of Serie A.
Arnautovic was a key rotation player for Inter last season, scoring seven goals and providing three assists in 1070 minutes across all competitions. The Austrian player, who participated in the European Championship this summer, returned to the team later than others and missed training last week due to muscle discomfort. However, the latest test results indicate that he will be back in training on Wednesday or Thursday, and will at least be available for a place on the bench for the first match of Serie A.
Inter’s preparations for the summer have been hampered by the impact of players returning from post-competition breaks, with key forwards Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram only returning to training in early August. The coach is worried about their early season form. The signing of a forward has also been hampered by the slow progress of the sales of players not in the plans, such as Correa and Satriano. In this context, the early recovery of Taremi and Arnautovic has given Inzaghi more confidence.
Inter will travel to Genoa for the first match of the league, which will take place in nine days. Inter will also play a friendly against Chelsea on August 11.
