Inter striker Edin Dzeko has experienced a significant slowdown in front of goal after having been one of the team’s main sources of goals in the early parts of the season.
This is highlighted in today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, who argue that with only two goals in the Italian top flight across the past three months, the Bosnian is in something of a goal drought.
Dzeko led the line for the Nerazzurri against Atalanta in yesterday evening’s goalless away draw, but he didn’t quite look on his usual game, with a missed header and a general lack of a clinical edge when chances fell to him the most disappointing aspect of his display.
Six of Dzeko’s eight league goals came in the first couple months of the season, and even though he has mostly cemented himself as a regular starter in the team, he has not been able to take the chances that have come to him in recent weeks and even months.
