Inter Milan shared the spoils with Serie A underachievers Fiorentina in a frustrating 1-1 draw last night.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri’s downturn in form continued at Stadio Artemio Franchi.
Despite leading the way in Serie A, Inter’s recent form has compromised their Scudetto quest.
Indeed, the Nerazzurri have struggled in the absence of star striker Lautaro Martinez.
Since losing their captain to injury in mid-February, they’ve won just one of their six matches in all competitions.
Furthermore, they’re currently enduring a three-game winless run in Serie A.
Therefore, it’s fair to say that the international break has come at an opportune moment for Cristian Chivu’s side.
Out-of-Form Inter Milan Endure Worst Run of Serie A Form Since Early 2023
It’s been three years since the 20-time Italian champions last failed to win three consecutive Serie A games.
Indeed, you need to go back to April 2023 for the last time it happened.
Meanwhile, second-placed AC Milan have taken advantage of Inter’s slump, reducing the gap between the sides to six points.
As such, Cristian Chivu is desperate to welcome Lautaro back from injury.
El Toro should be available for Inter’s upcoming home clash against top-four hopefuls Roma.
