Simone Inzaghi has confirmed that all but one of his senior Inter players have travelled for the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona coming up on Wednesday night, but has hinted that there are still decisions to be made over the availability of Marcus Thuram and Federico Dimarco.
The Nerazzurri have arrived in Catalonia and are preparing to face Barcelona at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys on Wednesday night, kicking off at 20.00 BST.
The winner will go on to face either Arsenal or PSG in the final at the end of May.
Inzaghi gives Inter injury update ahead of Barcelona
Speaking at his pre-match press conference on Tuesday night, Inzaghi confirmed that everyone apart from Benjamin Pavard will be available for selection against Barca.
There are still question marks over Marcus Thuram, who has missed the last three matches with an adductor injury, but returned to training with the rest of the first-team on Tuesday.
And, on Federico Dimarco, Inzaghi insisted that “we’ll see,” on the morning of the Barcelona-Inter tie.
“Thuram did his first training session with the team today, we haven’t had him since Bayern. We’ve done a good job, in short, he gave us good signs, but I have to evaluate tomorrow morning and I will speak to him again,” Inzaghi told the press, reported via Tmw.
“The others, apart from Pavard, are all there. I can play Bisseck, Darmian but also De Vrij as the third defender.”
