Inter head coach Simone Inzaghi is still making considerations on who he will start in attack in Saturday’s derby clash with AC Milan.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, who report that the coach will evaluate the candidates to start alongside Edin Dzeko up front, with Lautaro Martinez the favourite.

Dzeko looks to be all but certain to lead the line for the Nerazzurri in the massive derby this weekend, but there are three possibilities to start alongside him.

Martinez looks to be the player who Inzaghi would most like to turn to, but the coach will have to wait to evaluate the 24-year-old’s fitness upon returning from international duty only a couple days before the match.

Meanwhile, Alexis Sanchez is also a consideration and will also depend heavily on his condition on returning from the international break, while new signing Felipe Caicedo could also be thrown straight into the action.
