Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez will return to the starting lineup this weekend as the Nerazzurri travel to Sardinia to take on Cagliari.
According to reports from the Corriere dello Sport, the Argentine forward has recovered fully from the back pain that resulted in him playing limited minutes since his return from international duty.
Martinez returned from Argentina suffering slight fatigue and pain in his back.
Therefore, Inter head coach Cristian Chivu chose to start youngster Francesco Pio Esposito in the matches against Ajax and Sassuolo.
The starlet put in two excellent performances, reassuring Inter that they can manage without their captain and star player.
