Inter Champions League Final predicted XI: Injury updates and team news
Henrikh Mkhitaryan has returned to squad training ahead of Inter’s Champions League final against Manchester City in Istanbul on Saturday.
Inter Team News
Mkhitaryan has played a key role in Inter’s run to their first Champions League showpiece in 13 years, starting 11 of their 12 matches.
But the veteran midfielder is in a race to be fit, having missed the Nerazzurri’s final three Serie A games of the season with a hamstring injury.
“I’m fine, as you have seen me, I will do everything to play this game,” he said on Monday. “There is still time, I hope to help the team in this final.”
Mkhitaryan was back in squad training on Wednesday, but may have to settle for a place on the bench.
Milan Skriniar, who was on the bench for last weekend’s game against Torino, should be ready to start for Simone Inzaghi’s side.
But Joaquin Correa is a doubt after sustaining a calf injury during the Coppa Italian final win over Fiorentina a fortnight ago.
Inter Predicted Lineup
Inter Predicted XI (3-5-2): Andre Onana; Milan Skriniar, Francesco Acerbi, Alessandro Bastoni; Denzel Dumfries, Nicolo Barella, Hakan Calhanoglu, Marcelo Brozovic, Federico Dimarco; Edin Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez.
