Inter will play another friendly match this weekend to help Romelu Lukaku improve his fitness, according to Tuttosport.
The Nerazzurri will either keep the game in-house or pick another local opponent to come to Appiano Gentile, following fixtures against Pro Sesto and Virtus Bergamo.
Lukaku scored four goals in his first unofficial appearance on Sunday as Inter defeated Virtus 8-0.
The Belgium international is behind schedule in terms of his preparation after missing all of Manchester United’s summer fixtures.
Inter’s plans for another unofficial match are also an attempt to help Valentino Lazaro gain match fitness, after the wing-back sustained a thigh injury last month.
Lazaro is slowly improving his own condition but needs more game time after playing just one match so far, against Lugano on 14 July.
Antonio Conte’s side impressed during a tough preseason schedule, picking up draws against Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain, Tottenham and Valencia.
Inter’s first Serie A fixture of the new campaign will take place against Lecce at San Siro on 26 August.
