Federico Dimarco will report for medical tests after he was forced off midway through Inter’s 1-1 draw away against Napoli on Saturday evening, but Hakan Calhanoglu is not expected to be sidelined for a significant period. 

Dimarco opened the scoring with a wonderful first-half free-kick against Napoli at the Maradona on Saturday evening, but was forced off five minutes into the second half. Calhanoglu was also replaced at the same time with fears of a double injury blow for the Nerazzurri. 

Calhanoglu relief as Inter schedule Dimarco tests

Fortunately for the Turk, he is not expected to be ruled out for a significant period of time. According to updates from Sky Sport Italia, he world separately on Sunday during the team’s recovery session, but could return to the first-team group as early as Monday. 

There is more uncertainty over Dimarco’s condition, as he will report for medical tests at the training ground on Monday. 

Inter have somewhat of an injury crisis at wing-back. As things stand, Dimarco is out, as is Matteo Darmian, Carlos Augusto and Nicola Zalewski. 

Darmian and Zalewski are expected to return after the March international break according to Sky.
