Carlos Augusto faces a threat against Atletico Madrid, but Inter’s primary concern lies with Marko Arnautovic, who may be sidelined for an extended period.
Inter extended their impressive streak of winning all 13 competitive matches in 2024 with a 1-0 Serie A triumph over Bologna, secured by Yann Bisseck’s diving header.
Nevertheless, Simone Inzaghi received unsettling news as Carlos Augusto departed at halftime due to a minor calf issue.
The most significant worry centers around Arnautovic, who entered as a substitute in the 66th minute for Marcus Thuram, only to suffer a thigh injury during stoppage time.
Medical staff had to carry him off the field, raising doubts about his availability for Wednesday’s Champions League Round of 16 clash against Atletico Madrid.
According to reports from Sky Sport Italia, concerns revolve around potential damage to the adductor or hamstring, which could sideline him for several weeks.
This setback occurs in the same right thigh where Arnautovic previously suffered a torn hamstring against Empoli in late September. Notably, he scored the sole goal in that Champions League encounter, granting Inter a 1-0 advantage from the first leg.
