Inter Milan Vs Cagliari – Chivu Hands His Squad Day Off: Preparations Start On Wednesday Cristian Chivu has reportedly handed his Inter Milan squad a day off ahead of Friday’s Serie A showdown against Cagliari. According to Sky Sport Italia via FCInterNews , the Nerazzurri won’t train today following an exhausting victory at Como last weekend. Despite facing a two-goal deficit ahead of the first-half stoppage time, Inter secured a precious 4-3 win at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia.

Furthermore, the runaway Serie A leaders defied Lautaro Martinez’s absence to maintain their perfect league record against Como in the 21st century. Indeed, Marcus Thuram scored his first top-flight brace since August, while Denzel Dumfries’ double propelled Inter to a massive triumph. Cristian Chivu Hands Inter Milan Squad Day Off Ahead of Cagliari Clash Chivu has granted his side an extended rest period to avoid fatigue and reduce the risk of injury.

With Cagliari set to arrive at San Siro on Friday, the 45-year-old manager wants his players to approach this fixture in peak condition. Therefore, Inter will resume preparations for their next home game on Wednesday. Furthermore, Yann Bisseck could return from injury after missing the last two Serie A matches.

However, Cagliari’s visit will come too soon for top scorer Lautaro, who is at risk of missing Inter’s return Coppa Italia leg against Como.
