Lautaro Martinez sidelined with thigh injury

Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez has suffered a setback with muscle discomfort in the flexors of his left thigh. The injury has cast doubt on his availability for the upcoming series of fixtures.

Recovery times for such injuries typically range from two to three weeks. While there is a possibility he could return in time for the derby against AC Milan on October 31, he could also be sidelined for longer, potentially missing all club matches until the international break in November.

The club faces a demanding schedule in the coming weeks, including fixtures against Bologna, Shakhtar, Fiorentina, Venezia, and Feyenoord. The medical staff will monitor his progress closely to determine if he can rejoin the squad before the break.
