It never rains but it pours at Inter when it comes to injuries: today brought two bad pieces of news from the Nerazzurri infirmary for coach Cristian Chivu. After the announcement of a wrist fracture for Raffaele Di Gennaro, which will keep him sidelined for several weeks, another problem has emerged.

As Inter itself has announced, Matteo Darmian has also stopped. The Nerazzurri defender is suffering from a muscle strain in the soleus of his left leg, a muscular problem that surfaced in recent hours and was detected by the instrumental tests the number 36 underwent today.

This is the club’s official statement: “Matteo Darmian underwent instrumental tests this afternoon at the Humanitas Institute in Rozzano. The tests revealed a muscle strain in the soleus of the left leg. His condition will be re-evaluated day by day.”
