MILAN – Bad news for Inter: Yann Summer has suffered an injury to his right hand and will be forced to stop: the Nerazzurri club has announced that the Swiss goalkeeper “this morning he underwent clinical and instrumental tests at the Humanitas Institute in Rozzano, which revealed a fracture of the head of the proximal phalanx of the thumb of his right hand”.
Article Key Points
In the next few days, Inter's medical staff will evaluate the most suitable treatment, but in the meantime Sommer will certainly miss the league match against Genoa scheduled for Saturday, as well as the quarter-finals of Coppa Italia against Lazio, scheduled for Tuesday.
The injury also puts his presence in doubt for the big match for the Scudetto against Napoli of March 2 and for the first leg of the Champions League round of XNUMX. A hard blow for Simone Inzaghi, who will now have to find a solution between the posts for the next decisive matches of the season.
He should return for the match in Bergamo against Atalanta
His return could coincide with Atalanta-Inter on March 16 or be postponed until after the break for the national team. In his place will be Josep Martinez, the 26-year-old Spanish goalkeeper who arrived in the summer from Genoa: this season he has only played in the Coppa Italia, against Udinese, a match won by the Nerazzurri 2-0.

It's really bad that Sommer got injured, especially now that there are so many important games. I hope the doctors can find a quick solution to get him back on the pitch as soon as possible.
