Summary
- Lautaro Martinez sidelined with left calf strain.

Inter Milan's captain, Lautaro Martinez, is facing a minimum three-week absence after sustaining a new injury to his left calf. The club confirmed the setback, describing it as a minor muscular strain affecting the soleus muscle in his left leg.
This injury impacts the same area that previously kept Martinez sidelined for over a month earlier this season. His anticipated return is set for the final week of April or the first week of May, with matches against Torino and Parma identified as potential comeback fixtures.
During Martinez's absence, the primary goalscoring responsibility will fall to Marcus Thuram, who has shown good form. Pio Esposito and Ange-Yoan Bonny are also expected to contribute across upcoming fixtures in Serie A and the Coppa Italia.
