Inter currently have only two players who might not be available for Sunday evening’s derby against Milan, a report claims.
According to what is being reported by Corriere dello Sport (via MilanPress), the duo in question are Lautaro Martinez and Ange-Yoan Bonny. Given that both are strikers, it means Chivu’s attacking department could be hit quite severely.

The French centre-forward is aiming to return for the derby as per the paper. His was out against Como last night due to a muscle overload , he should return to the group either today or tomorrow. Depending on how the rest of the week goes, Chivu will decide whether to call him up or not.
Lautaro Martinez will not be available for the game against the Rossoneri. The Argentine continues to follow an individuals recovery program to recover from his calf injury and is expected to return only for the away match against Fiorentina on March 22.
So, given the doubt about Bonny and the absence of Lautaro, it seems obvious already that Inter will go into the derby with a front two of Marcus Thuram and Francesco Pio Esposito. The former, who was close to joining Milan, has 12 goals this season in all competitions.
