Simone Inzaghi will likely have a very thin squad to choose from for his first-ever game in charge of Inter when he takes on Lugano, according to a report in the Italian media today.

As has been reported by Tuttosport, Aleksandar Kolarov and youngster Eddie Salcedo are both expected to miss the fixture due to injuries.

Both players were in with a chance of playing due to the incredible amount of first-team players that Simone Inzaghi is missing due to the various international tournaments this summer.

Euro 2020 has removed the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Marcelo Brozovic, Ivan Perisic, Nicolo Barella, and Alessandro Bastoni from contention. Copa America also means that Arturo Vidal, Alexis Sanchez, Matias Vecino, and Lautaro Martinez will all be missing.

There is also the unusual factor of Stefano Sensi getting married the same day, and Hakan Calhanoglu attending his brother’s wedding where he will be a witness.
