Lautaro Martinez Reinjures Leg Muscle, Out Again
11 Apr
Summary
- Martinez reinjured his left soleus muscle, sidelining him again.
- The injury occurred during his return to action last Sunday.
- He was sidelined for seven weeks prior with the same muscle.
Inter Milan confirmed on Friday that their star forward Lautaro Martínez has sustained a new injury. Martínez reinjured the soleus muscle in his left leg, an issue that had previously kept him out of action for seven weeks. The club stated that clinical examinations revealed a slight muscular strain, and his condition will be monitored in the coming days.
Martínez had only recently returned to the starting lineup last Sunday, scoring two goals in Inter's dominant 5-2 victory over Roma. This brief return followed absences from five club matches and two international friendlies with Argentina. The current injury means he will miss another series of games at a crucial point in the season.
This latest setback affects Martínez's dual objectives of securing his third Serie A Scudetto with Inter and maintaining peak physical condition for the upcoming 2026 World Cup. Before this recent period of injuries, the forward was enjoying a highly successful 2025-26 season, having netted 20 goals and provided four assists in 36 appearances across all competitions.
