Inter manager Luciano Spalletti is at risk of losing Roberto Gagliardini for the rest of the season according to Gazzetta dello Sport, who report the muscle injury from yesterday could be serious.

“A tough blow for Inter who had found a player of great strength and vision that generated a diverse midfield with Rafinha and Brozovic, that put Spalletti’s tactics to work in perfect harmony”.

Gagliardini came off last night on a stretcher, visibly sore, with his hands on his face, also feeling personal sorrow, as he also knows that he was playing well. The former Atalanta player remained in the locker for the rest of the evening, watching the game and left the stadium limping. Now we await the exams to give a more complete diagnosis to the muscular problem and estimate a recovery time, which will be far from quick.

The 24-year-old suffered two minor knocks to the ankle and groin beforehand, perhaps foreshadowing what was to come. All Nerazzurri fans will be hoping he gets well soon.
