Inter have confirmed that Lautaro Martinez will miss this weekend’s match at home to Lazio due to the injury he sustained during international duty.

The 21-year-old forward was forced off the field just 11 minutes into Argentina’s 1-0 friendly victory over Morocco with a muscle injury, which the club have now announced is an injury to his right thigh.

“Lautaro Martinez underwent an MRI scan today after picking up an issue during the friendly between Argentina and Morocco,” a statement posted to the official club website reads.

“Tests revealed that he has a pulled rectus femoris muscle in his right thigh. A personalised work plan has been devised for the Argentine forward and he will be evaluated again next week..”
