“Diego Godin has undergone tests at the Istituto Humanitas in Rozzano,” read a tweet by the official Inter account.
“They revealed a pulled rectus femoris muscle in his left thigh. His condition will continue to be evaluated on a week-to-week basis.”
Although not yet confirmed, it’s believed the injury will keep Godin sidelined for Inter’s Serie A opener against Lecce.
As for a replacement, Danilo D’Ambrosio has already been tried in the Nerazzurri’s three-man backline and is favoured over Alessandro Bastoni for the starting spot.
