Thuram Injury Scare Puts Coppa Italia Final in Doubt

Marcus Thuram has become a major doubt for Inter ahead of Wednesday’s Coppa Italia final against Lazio after picking up an injury in training today.

According to Sky Sport Italia, reported by Football Italia via Yahoo Sports, Thuram suffered the problem during training and is now likely to miss the final entirely. The exact nature and severity of the injury have not yet been confirmed, with further tests still required.

The report adds that there are “strong doubts” over whether the French forward can recover in time for the match at the Stadio Olimpico. OneFootball also states that more examinations are needed before Inter knows the full extent of the issue.

If Thuram is ruled out, Ange-Yoan Bonny is currently considered the most likely option to partner Lautaro Martínez in attack, while Francesco Pio Esposito has returned to the squad after a back problem.

It would be a significant blow for Cristian Chivu, especially after Thuram assisted Lautaro in Inter’s 3-0 win over Lazio at the weekend. For now, the situation remains uncertain — but the early signs suggest Inter may have to prepare for the final without one of their most important attacking players.
