Ange-Yoan Bonny will reportedly partner up with Lautaro Martinez in the upcoming Serie A showdown between Napoli and Inter Milan.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the French striker will take Francesco Pio Esposito’s place in attack.
Despite scoring his first-ever goal in the Champions League on Tuesday, the 20-year-old will drop to the bench this weekend.
Indeed, Francesco Pio Esposito will make way for the Frenchman at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
Bonny & Lautaro to Lead Inter Milan Attack vs Napoli
With Marcus Thuram still in the treatment room with a thigh injury, Cristian Chivu is reluctant to rest his captain.
Therefore, El Toro will retain his place in the front third despite lingering concerns over fatigue.
Meanwhile, Bonny will return to the starting XI after coming off the bench against Royale Union SG.
The 21-year-old has been superb at the start of the new Serie A season.
Indeed, he has already tallied three goals and three assists in seven matches, netting in back-to-back league starts for the Nerazzurri.
In my opinion Bonny has already kicked Thuram out of starting 11, much more aggresive, helping midfield more… Considering Pio is Inter’s project for future he’ll also get more minutes as season goes by. So Marcus will have to look for new club in summer, and that will be huge deal for us, brought for free, sell for any number higher than 60 mil, considering we’ll have to get new players on multiple positions.
