Inter Milan talisman Marcus Thuram is reportedly at risk of missing Saturday’s high-stakes Serie A clash against Napoli.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Frenchman’s availability for the upcoming trip to Naples is hanging in the balance.
It’s been a month since Marcus Thuram last featured for Inter.
Indeed, the 28-year-old sustained a thigh injury in a controversial 2-1 defeat at Juventus in Serie A.
However, he’s edging closer to regaining full fitness.
Marcus Thuram Doubtful for Napoli vs Inter Milan Clash
Despite Thuram’s lengthy absence, Inter have been unstoppable, stringing together six consecutive wins in all competitions.
Furthermore, the Nerazzurri squeezed past Roma last weekend as Ange-Yoan Bonny scored an early winner at the Stadio Olimpico.
Indeed, the 21-year-old has seized the opportunity to strengthen his first-team status at San Siro.
Bonny has scored in back-to-back Serie A starts for the Nerazzurri, making Thuram’s absence go unnoticed.
Nonetheless, having the former Borussia Monchengladbach striker ready for the game against Napoli would be a huge morale boost.
Therefore, Cristian Chivu is expecting the decision on Thuram’s fitness with bated breath.
