Matteo Politano was delighted to make his return from injury on Sunday as Inter edged past Tottenham in the International Champions Cup.

The forward missed all three matches of the Nerazzurri’s tour in Asia after picking up a thigh injury in training.

He is being linked with a move away from the club this month but scored a penalty in Inter’s 4-3 shoot-out win, replacing Sebastiano Esposito at half-time.

Politano tweeted: “Finally in action! We’re on the right track, let’s keep going!”
