Inter Milan’s Benjamin Pavard is likely to miss the important Champions League semi-final against Barcelona. He got hurt again during training and had to leave early.
PAVARD INJURED IN TRAINING
Pavard was trying to recover from an ankle injury he got in a match against Roma. He joined the team in training but felt pain again and had to leave. This means he won’t play against Barcelona in the second leg of the semi-final at San Siro. Pavard missed the first leg, which ended in a 3-3 draw. Yann Bisseck replaced him on the right side of Inter’s defense.
HOW IT AFFECTS INTER’S SEASON
Not having Pavard is a big problem for Inter’s defense. He has been important this season, scoring a goal that helped knock out Bayern Munich. Inter have already won Serie A and haven’t lost in 13 league matches. The tie with Barcelona is very close, so every player’s availability matters. Inter’s next game is the second leg against Barcelona. They want to make it to the final. They are leading Serie A by a lot, but their main focus is now on winning in Europe.
WHAT’S NEXT FOR INTER AND PAVARD?
Yann Bisseck is likely to start again instead of Pavard. Inter will depend on their strong defense and home fans at San Siro to win against Barcelona and reach the Champions League final. Pavard will keep recovering with medical help, but he won’t play in this important game. Inter will play their next Serie A game after the Champions League match. They aim to keep their winning streak as they finish a great season.
