Muscle resentment. The grimace of disappointment. That pain that didn’t go away and now also the answer to the diagnostic tests. The defeat against Lazio also brought another bad news for Inter: Romelu Lukaku Injury. Which is not serious, but it takes sleep anyway.
The distraction for the flexors of the left thigh leaves the Belgian striker out of action: no matches against Cremonese, no derby against Milan (a delicate game after Olimpico’s rout) and, above all, no Champions League challenge. In the round of death, which sees the Nerazzurri take on Bayern Munich and Barcelona, the ex-Chelsea’s absence is the worst news you could have on the occasion of the Cup debut. For the opening match against the Bavarians Simone Inzaghi will have to do without him.
“Romelu Lukaku underwent instrumental tests today at the Instituto Humanitas in Rozzano – reads the note from the Milanese club -, after the muscle strain he found in training yesterday morning. Investigations showed a distraction of the flexors of the left thigh. reassessed next week”.
How long will he have to sit out and how many races will he skip? The league break for the national teams will help the player to recover. But his absence will be (already) heavy due to the tight schedule between Serie A and Champions. In addition to Cremonese and Inter, he will also not play against Turin and Udinese. While in the Cup, he said of the terrible debut with the Bavarians, he will almost certainly also lose on the occasion of the second day with Viktoria Plzen.
The alarm went off during training, when Lukaku felt that annoyance that made him grimace laden with bewilderment. He had confided in his teammates that he was ready to take the field anyway, even if not in optimal condition, aware that after the setback against Lazi it was necessary to close ranks. The medical report after the tests performed dampened any more optimistic predictions, leaps of faith and courage. Against that Milan that he punished many times, there will be none. And the music of the Champions League will hear it, for now, only on the other side of the fence.
