Serie A giants Inter Milan have reportedly grown frustrated with Luis Henrique after yet another underwhelming performance in the Milan derby.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Brazilian winger could drop to the bench in Saturday’s clash against Atalanta.
Despite dashing out around €24 million to sign Luis Henrique last summer, Inter may soon cut ties with the ex-Botafogo man.
Indeed, the 24-year-old has failed to live up to expectations this season despite being given ample time and space to prove his worth.
Furthermore, Denzel Dumfries’ long-term absence gave the former Marseille star a chance to shine.
However, he has failed to seize the opportunity.
Inter Milan Grow Frustrated with Luis Henrique
Henrique emerged as the main culprit for Inter’s narrow 1-0 defeat in Sunday’s Serie A derby against AC Milan.
Indeed, he lost track of Pervis Estupinan, who decided the high-stakes showdown already in the first half.
Therefore, Cristian Chivu is reportedly looking to bench Henrique this weekend as Inter prepare to face Atalanta in a must-win home game.
With Dumfries back from a lengthy spell in the pits, Chivu is ready to reinstate the Dutch star on the right wing.
However, it’s worth noting that the 29-year-old made a cameo appearance against Milan, but failed to find his usual rhythm and impact on the flank.
Meanwhile, Atalanta lost 1-6 at home to Kane-less bayern… The fact that they deemed it okay to rest their star in a champions league game versus a SERIE A side says a lot about how teams from other leagues see serie a and rightly so… The evidence is there for all to see… Let them keep making daft moves… Maybe we will need to wait for 50 years before they wake up.
I was wondering why you would buy a winger as a wing back. The Inter management still thinks they are the same lel
you not inter material. go back to france league
I wonder why it took almost a whole season to realise it, when every fan knew after a few games rhat this guy is hopeless. The only danger he’s causing is on our half of the pitch. We had a chance to get rid off him in the winter transfer window, but they saw him improving and decided not to. Now he’ll be Asllani 2.0. We’ll never be able to sell him.
100%
Nope Chivu will definitely play him because it was very clear the guy is not suitable for Inter on both wings both attack and defence.
Some French pundits were surprised Inter were interested in him. He has good potential, but still not suitable for a club of the Inter level.
I totally agree with this article. Defensively, he’s a disaster, and I do not see any sign of improvement soon.
Well in attack is just as bad. He gets into dangerous positions only to pass backwards risking Inter losing possession. He’s literally scared of crossing and because of that when he actually forced to cross it’s more of a chip inside the box instead
Buying a player from Marseille lol we’re so stupid it’s crazy
sack chivu. luis henrique is a fucking 11. he doesn’t know how to defend…. SACK CHIVU!!!!!
Complete waste of money on this guy
