Inter Milan's Injury Crisis: Darmian & Diouf Step Up

Inter Milan is facing a significant injury challenge as they prepare to play Torino. Lautaro Martinez is targeting a return against Parma, while Luis Henrique is out for approximately two weeks with a thigh muscle injury. These absences will force manager Cristian Chivu to adapt his lineup, potentially giving starting nods to Matteo Darmian and Andy Diouf. Darmian, with his prior experience at Torino, and Diouf, who can play on the right, are being considered. Elsewhere, Alessandro Bastoni has returned to training and will be evaluated. Stefan de Vrij and Denzel Dumfries have recovered from minor issues, though Dumfries might not be risked. Yann Sommer is expected in goal, with Manuel Akanji, Yann Bisseck, and Carlos Augusto in defense. Federico Dimarco will play on the left, and Hakan Calhanoglu and Nicolo Barella will anchor the midfield, with Davide Frattesi as an option. Marcus Thuram and Pio Esposito are anticipated to lead the attack.
