Horrible news for Inzaghi. Ahead of the match against Atletico, Inter loses a key player

Francesco Acerbi suffered an injury in the match against Roma and underwent instrumental exams yesterday. The recovery time and his condition will be reassessed in the coming days, but his participation in the Champions League match is ruled out.

Injury for Acerbi, who almost certainly will not be present in the first leg match of the Champions League round of 16 between Inter and Atletico Madrid. The defender, injured on Saturday against Roma, underwent instrumental exams this morning at the Humanitas Clinical Institute in Rozzano.

ACERBI INJURY

The Nerazzurri central defender has a slight muscle strain in the right calf. His condition will be reassessed in the coming days, but expecting a recovery by Tuesday, the 20th, is virtually impossible. De Vrij will play in his place on Friday and against Atletico.
