The week leading up to the match against Juventus opens with encouraging news for Inter. Calhanoglu and Barella are in fact close to rejoining the squad after their respective injuries that have kept them out in recent weeks.

According to what was reported by Corriere dello Sport, the Nerazzurri coach should soon be able to welcome back both midfielders. There is a fair amount of optimism about their call-up for the next match, although it remains to be seen whether at least one of them will be able to start or if they will have to settle for playing only part of the game.

Caution remains the guiding principle, especially considering the weeks of absence behind them. Chivu will decide how and whether to use them only after consulting with the medical staff, based on the feedback from the upcoming training sessions. Their conditions will be monitored closely to avoid relapses.
