Christian Eriksen Favourite To Start For Inter Tonight Vs Shakhtar Donetsk, Italian Media Detail

SEMPREINTER | 3 MONTHS AGO | 52 SECONDS READ

The favourite player to complete the Inter midfield in tonight's final UEFA Champions League match at home to Shakhtar Donetsk appears to be Christian Eriksen according to a report in today's print edition of Italian daily newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

Going off what happened in training yesterday, the Danish national team attacking midfielder appears set to be handed a first start in 40 days since Inter's match versus Parma.

Stefano Sensi is seen as the alternative to Eriksen but Inter manager Antonio Conte is not yet ready to play Sensi from the start just yet.

The report goes on to add that Conte could possibly spring a surprise by deploying Alexis Sanchez in behind strikers Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez.

Should Conte go ahead and start Sanchez, Conte could then deploy Matteo Darmian at right wing-back rather than Achraf Hakimi in order to have more balance.

Probable Inter starting line-up (3-5-2): Samir Handanovic; Milan Skriniar, Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni; Achraf Hakimi, Roberto Gagliardini, Marcelo Brozovic, Christian Eriksen, Ashley Young; Romelu Lukaku, Lautaro Martinez.

THE MORNING CALL • 22 MINUTES AGO “Possibly before (spring training is) out, but it’s not imminent,” Boone said of Andujar returning to Grapefruit League action. “He is doing better, dealing with just the soreness and nerve inflammation in there that has seemingly got a little bit better each and every day. He’s been on the field doing defensive work without throwing though, the last couple of days. He’s not hitting yet. So, having now been down probably at least a week, if it leaks into a few more days and you got to have a little bit of a ramp up for him.

World champ rower on the health, mental stresses that led to her retirement

STUFF.CO.NZ • 58 MINUTES AGO Zoe McBride gives crewmate Jackie Kiddle a pat of encouragement before their lightweight women's double sculls heat at the world rowing championships in Linz-Ottensheim, Austria, in 2019. McBride announced her retirement from rowing on Monday, ending a career that many thought could peak with a gold medal in the lightweight women’s double sculls in Tokyo this year. But the 25-year-old said a battle with weight, injuries and mental health ensured she eventually had an easy decision to make in hanging up her oars. In the women’s lightweight double, the scullers have to be no heavier than 57 kilograms on average and not more than 59kg individually.
