Inter's Key Defenders to Miss Supercoppa Italiana Clash
Inter Milan will face Atalanta in the Supercoppa Italiana without defenders Benjamin Pavard and Francesco Acerbi, who are sidelined due to injuries.
Inter Milan is set to compete in the Supercoppa Italiana in Riyadh without two of their key defenders, Benjamin Pavard and Francesco Acerbi. Both players are recovering from injuries and have not traveled with the squad to Saudi Arabia.
The Nerazzurri are scheduled to face Atalanta on January 2nd in the semifinals of the tournament, which has returned to a four-team format. The winners will advance to the final to compete for the prestigious Italian Super Cup.
Head coach Simone Inzaghi had hoped to have Pavard and Acerbi available, at least on the bench, for these crucial matches. However, it has been decided that they will remain in Milan to continue their rehabilitation and aim for a return in the Serie A fixture against Venezia on January 12th.
On a positive note, defender Matteo Darmian, who missed recent games against Como and Cagliari, has shown significant improvement. He has been included in the squad traveling to Riyadh and is expected to bolster Inter's defensive options during the Supercoppa Italiana.
