Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi will bench one between Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram in the away fixture against Salernitana.

After winning the first five fixtures in Serie A, the Nerazzurri suffered their maiden defeat of the season at the hands of Sassuolo.

As usual, the Argentinian and the Frenchman led the line. However, many felt that the two strikers were exhausted, especially the captain.

Therefore, the manager could decide to ring the changes this weekend. The Beneamata travel south for a meeting against Salernitana at the Arechi Stadium.

According to Sky Sport journalist Paulo Condò via TuttoMercatoWeb, Inter will rest either Lautaro or Thuram.

Since the start of the season, the Argentina star has started in every fixture throughout all competitions.

As for the former Borussia Monchengladbach attacker, he only started on the bench in the Champions League against Real Sociedad. But he still took the field in the second half.

Inter Milan Manager Will Drop Either Lautaro Martinez Or Marcus Thuram For The Upcoming Serie A Fixture Vs Salernitana

Marko Arnautovic is currently out with an injury. So the only natural substitute remaining is Alexis Sanchez.

Therefore, Inzaghi could hand the Chilean his first start since returning to the club in the summer. He has only made three appearances off the bench thus far.

But as we reported earlier today, there could be another option on the table in the shape of Davy Klaassen.

The Dutchman is a versatile player who can play as an attacking midfielder, supporting a lone striker.
