Inter confirm Joaquin Correa has suffered a strain to his left calf muscle, while reports in Italy claim Benjamin Pavard will return for the next Serie A match against Venezia, while Hakan Calhanoglu hasn’t yet undergone medical tests.
Inter confirm Correa suffered a muscle injury during the Supercoppa Italiana in Riyadh last week.
“Joaquin Correa underwent medical tests this morning at the Istituto Clinico Humanitas in Rozzano,” the Nerazzurri said on Wednesday.

“The Nerazzurri forward has suffered a strain to his left calf muscle. His condition will be assessed day by day.”
The Argentinean striker is expected to miss the next match against Venezia, but according to Calciomercato.com, Pavard’s return will boost Simone Inzaghi’s defensive options.
The France international has been out of action since the end of November due to a hamstring muscle injury.
Calciomercato adds that Francesco Acerbi will miss the Venezia game. The veteran Italian defender is expected to return to group training next week.
Last but not least, Yann Bisseck and Calhanoglu have not undergone medical tests yet. The Turkey international was replaced in the first half of Monday’s derby against Milan in the Supercoppa Italiana Final.
