The Gazzetta dello Sport also commented on the young Belgian’s left knee injury which was sustained during Inter’s first ever Youth League match against Dinamo Kiev yesterday, after fears Zinho Vanheusden has torn his ACL. “If the worst case scenario is confirmed, Vanheusden will undergo an operation which should take between five to six months in order to fully recover, which is unfortunately a massive blow for a guy who was gearing up for a place in the first team since July and who had become the 4th choice centre back for Luciano Spalletti. In his growth he has also earned a spot on the under 21’s Belgian national team, so this injury really is a major knock”, they say.
“If the team requires it, then the return of Joao Cancelo could free Danilo D’Ambrosio who could be adapted to play in that position, but only when Joao Cancelo returns”, suggests Gazzetta dello Sport.
