Inter Milan wingback Matteo Darmian will likely miss Saturday’s pivotal Serie A clash against Napoli due to injury.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, Darmian suffered a muscle problem in last night’s win against Lazio.
Despite beating Marco Baroni’s side 2-0, Inter paid a potentially hefty price at the San Siro.
Indeed, Matteo Darmian had to come off midway through the first half.
The veteran defender limped off the field, with Denzel Dumfries taking his place.

Both players had to watch last evening’s match from the stands.
Furthermore, they will not be at Inzaghi’s disposal this weekend.
