Luis Henrique sidelined with muscle injury at Inter
Inter winger Luis Henrique is expected to be out for approximately 20 days following medical tests that revealed an injury to his left adductor longus muscle. The Brazilian player is set to miss four league matches against Fiorentina, Venezia, Milan, and Como, as well as a Champions League fixture against Feyenoord.
Coach Cristian Chivu faces tactical adjustments due to the absence, with Diouf and Spence expected to see increased playing time on the flanks. On the left side, Carlos Augusto may see more opportunities, potentially playing as a left-sided center-back to allow Bastoni to move centrally.
In preparation for the upcoming match against Fiorentina, Chivu is testing defensive rotations involving Bastoni and Bisseck to allow Akanji rest, while Ivan Provedel is prepared to make his first start for the club.
