Injured during the round of 16 first leg of C1 between Inter and Atlético de Madrid, Marcus Thuram is determined about his fate.
The image may have made people fear the worst: Marcus Thuram on the ground and grimacing, forced to leave the field in the middle of the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League against Matelassiers on Tuesday evening (1-0 victory for Inter).
Examinations carried out since then at the Humanitas Institute in Rozzano have revealed a small lesion in the adductors, at the level of the right thigh. A strain which should keep the person concerned away from the lawns for two weeks.
Restored for the eighth return?
More fear than harm therefore for the French international striker, who should be restored for the round of 16 return in Madrid against the Colchoneros on March 13, confirms Gazzetta dello Sport.
This season, Marcus Thuram has found his place at Inter, forming a formidable offensive tandem with Argentinian Lautaro Martinez. The former Sochalian and Guingamp player has scored 12 goals in 34 matches in all competitions in the Nerazzurro jersey.
