Nainggolan & Keita Could Start In Bologna vs Inter

Summer signings Radja Nainggolan and Keita Balde could be in line to both make their starting Inter debuts in Saturday’s affair with Bologna as per a report from Tuttosport.

Nainggolan did make the bench for Sunday’s draw with Torino but Luciano Spalletti opted not to bring him on. While a start is possible, it must be remembered that the Belgian has only been training fully with teammates for five days and by Thursday or Friday things will be a lot clearer as to whether he will have the required fitness to start from the first whistle.

Keita Balde has appeared in both of Inter’s Serie A matches thus far this season but has only done so from the bench. He impressed in his cameo against Sassuolo but could not make his desired impact against Torino on Sunday and it has been clear that the Senegalese attacker offers something different to the other wingers in Inter’s squad.
