Lukaku to miss Bayern clash after thigh tweak

Simone Inzaghi head coach of FC Internazionale speaks with Romelu Menama Lukaku Bolingoli during the Serie A match between FC Internazionale and UC Sampdoria at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on October 29, 2022 in Milan, Italy.

Belgium centre-forward Romelu Lukaku is set to miss Inter’s Champions League clash with Bayern Munich Tuesday after tweaking an old thigh injury in the Nerazzurri’s 3-0 win over Sassaulo at the weekend, Inter said Monday. 

Inter are already through to the next phase.

Lautaro Martinez of FC Internazionale is substituted for Romelu Lukaku during the Serie A match between FC Internazionale and UC Sampdoria at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on October 29, 2022 in Milan, Italy.

He is also said to be at a “strong risk” of missing next Sunday’s Serie A match against Juventus.

Lukaku, who rejoined Inter after an unlucky spell at Chelsea last year, has had a string of injuries lately.
