Inter Milan will decide whether to include Juan Cuadrado in the Derby della Madonnina matchday squad on Friday.
The 35-year-old joined the Colombian national team for the international break. However, he ended up sustaining an injury while on international duty.
Luckily for the Nerazzurri, this turned out to be a slight knock. Therefore, he remains in the running for a place in Simone Inzaghi’s squad.
Yesterday, the Colombian trained separately following his return from South America.
