Revealed: Why France Star Will Miss Inter Milan Midweek Trip To Union Saint-Gilloise

Inter Milan will continue to take no risks with Marcus Thuram, with the Frenchman set to be absent against Roma and Union Saint-Gilloise, with a potential return against Napoli next weekend.

Thuram’s recovery from a biceps femoris strain in his left leg remains under close supervision at Appiano Gentile.

The French forward will be absent for the trip to the Stadio Olimpico against Roma.

Therefore, he is targeting a return for next weekend’s crucial Serie A clash with Napoli.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport, ‘the utmost caution is being exercised, even if the hope – not the certainty – is to have Thuram at least among the squad for the trip to Naples next Saturday.’

Coach Cristian Chivu and his medical staff are prioritising a full recovery to avoid any risk of relapse, particularly with a demanding run of fixtures on the horizon.

Thuram is expected to be left out of Tuesday’s Champions League encounter in Belgium against Union Saint-Gilloise.

This ensures he can rest completely before stepping up intensity in training later in the week.

The plan is to have the 27-year-old available for the top-of-the-table clash at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.

There, Inter will look to consolidate their title challenge.

After missing the last two matches, Thuram’s return would provide Chivu with a major boost.

Therefore restoring the famed “ThuLa” partnership that has been instrumental to Inter.
