Alessandro Bastoni, Nicolo Barella, and Davide Frattesi will not be part of Inter Milan’s traveling squad as the team jets off to North America today.
Per Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Italian trio will join the rest of the group directly in the United States.
All three players featured for Gli Azzurri in June’s World Cup qualifying games against Norway and Moldova.
However, it wasn’t a pleasant experience for the Nerazzurri trio.
Indeed, Alessandro Bastoni and Nicolo Barella faced harsh criticism for lackluster showings in a 3-0 defeat in Oslo.
Meanwhile, Davide Frattesi did well against Moldova, registering an assist in Italy’s scrappy 2-0 home win.

International duty was the last thing they needed after an exhausting club season.
Therefore, they’ll take some extra rest before putting themselves at Cristian Chivu’s disposal.
Meanwhile, Hakan Calhanoglu will board the plane despite sustaining an injury for Turkey.
The same goes for Francesco Pio Esposito, who has yet to regain full fitness.
Finally, Yann Bisseck will be there after missing Germany’s UEFA Nations League clashes against Portugal and France.
This site is so rubbish -it’s just copy and paste of anything found online without fact checking or often a spell check, last week we had “inter will ask fabregas permission to speak to fabregas” ♂️
and I literally just watched a video of the team leaving for the FCWC with all three joining the lads on the flight.
lol
inter will not win the cup so it really doesn’t matter who plays or not. inter will not win it.
