On the eve of the derby between AC Milan and Inter Milan at the San Siro, as part of the 28th day of Serie A, coach Cristian Chivu indicated that Marcus Thuram remains uncertain for the shock encounter. The French striker is suffering from a fever and did not participate in training the day before the match, although the staff hopes he can recover in time. The Romanian tactician nevertheless showed his confidence before this crucial derby against rival Milan, highlighting the progress in the mentality of his team since the defeat against Napoli in the first leg.
“Today we had some problems with Thuram: he has a fever and didn’t train. But we hope he will be 100% tomorrow. Calhanoglu is available and showing good signs. The match against Como was beneficial to him. How important will the psychological aspect be, given the recent results of the derbies? We are mentally ready and I think we have progressed since the start of the season. We neither underestimate nor overestimate anyone. I think the mental shift came after the defeat against Napoli in the first leg. We had already made a lot of progress against Milan in the first leg. We are calm and aware that we are facing a strong team that can cause us problems. Milan have very good players, we will have to be at our best. »he declared at a press conference. Answer tomorrow evening at San Siro.
