Inzaghi

The Iranian’s stop is not a concern, but Inzaghi must find alternatives as he has only Thuram and Arnautovic.

Yesterday the news of the exams carried out by Taremi that have revealed a muscle strain in the left thigh. As reported by Fcinter1908, the former Porto will have to stay out for 10-15 days and would be miss the debut in the league with Genoa.

"Taremi’s injury does not change anything in terms of the market. For two reasons. The first: it is a short KO. 

The second: the "history" of the player, as it was written in the opening, does not send worrying signals. And so it is not after this setback that the club will accelerate to find another striker on the market. That research is still valid and is linked to the evolution of the situation around Arnautovic", writes La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"Rather, the injury of Taremi opens a strictly technical issue related to the probable substitution for the start of the championship. And so, apart from Thuram - yesterday’s first training for the French, today will stay in Appiano while the others will go to Pisa.

Simone Inzaghi has three possible solutions. 

The first, would be accelerating the return of Lautaro.

 The Argentine is expected in Milan for the first training on August 8. But it is not excluded, therefore, that “il Toro” accelerates the return, precisely copying the twin Thuram, in fact renouncing at least partially the three days of rest granted by Inzaghi to the nationals. 

Then there is the Arnautovic solution, which will start again today to get familiar with the matches. Arnautovic and Thuram are a new couple, far from being tested in official match: Inzaghi has only four times since the start of the season.

But watch out for the third way: Mkhitaryan.

The Armenian has already closed the friendly of Cesena with Las Palmas as a striker: it is a role that knows well, he held in the past in the Bundesliga and in Premier, Inzaghi himself in some game has used him in that position. 

It is possible that in the next friendly matches - from tonight with Pisa, then in Monza with Al Ittihad and in London with Chelsea - the solution will be tested again. 

Besides, Inzaghi has plenty of alternatives in the midfield", adds the daily.
