Lautaro Martinez defied pain to help Inter beat Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final.
However, he has had to pay a heavy price. Indeed, a thigh injury forced him off last weekend's win at Torino.
Furthermore, he will likely skip Sunday's home game against Lazio.
Lautaro Martinez Works Separately Ahead of Inter Milan vs Lazio Game

Lautaro's return to training can certainly encourage Simone Inzaghi.
Even though he'll probably be out of contention for Lazio's visit, Inter can realistically expect to have him for the final weekend.
Indeed, the Nerazzurri will take on Como in the final Serie A round.

More importantly, the 27-year-old should be fit for the Champions League final on May 31.
Meanwhile, Benjamin Pavard, Davide Frattesi, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan have also trained separately from the group.

Chelsea's Fernandez flying ahead of Benfica reunion at Club World Cup
Chelsea's Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernandez has been his team's most consistent attacking force in 2025 and faces his former side Benfica (FRANCK FIFE) For a long while Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez struggled under the weight of his hefty price tag but as he prepares to face his former side Benfica on Saturday in the Club World Cup, he is finally showing why the Blues splashed out on him. The 24-year-old set up two goals in Chelsea's 3-0 win over Esperance of Tunisia which sent his team through to the last 16 and a date with the Portuguese giants in Charlotte this weekend. Advertisement With England international Cole Palmer struggling for form, Fernandez has been Chelsea's key creative influence over the past few months. The Argentina star helped the Londoners qualify for the Champions League by claiming fourth place in the Premier League, as well as winning the Conference League in May. After Real Betis took the lead in the final, Fernandez inspired Chelsea's comeback by netting their first goal in an eventual 4-1 triumph in Poland. In 2025, Fernandez has scored and assisted a total of 14 goals, with Pedro Neto the next highest producer at Enzo Maresca's Chelsea with nine, and Palmer lagging behind with eight, along with youngster Tyrique George. Advertisement As well as impressing against Esperance, Fernandez scored in Chelsea's 2-0 opening win in Atlanta against Los Angeles FC. "My goal against LAFC was my eighth of the season. That is a good number, it's good in one season and I am thankful to God for this. But for me, this is still just the beginning," Fernandez told Chelsea's website. "I'm always going to want more, I always want to do better. If I can do that, I will be helping the team. This is always on my mind. "It's why I work hard and try to improve, and with Enzo (Maresca), I am playing further forward, which has helped with my statistics. Next season, though, I want to score more goals and give more assists." Advertisement - Record signing - With Chelsea's squad largely jumbled together in the last two years, Fernandez's arrival in February 2023 for a British transfer record fee of £107 million ($147 million) makes him one of the more experienced players. "This responsibility is something I enjoy," continued Fernandez, who arrived at Stamford Bridge on the back of his superb 2022 World Cup performances as Argentina won the trophy. "I try not to let it change how I perform on the pitch. For me, I must have the same mindset and keep the same attitude -- work hard, give my very best, be brave, and do everything I can to help the team." Advertisement Later in 2023 Chelsea signed Moises Caicedo for a deal which could rise to £115 million and this summer Liverpool's move for Florian Wirtz could cost them as much as £116 million, easing the pressure on Fernandez a little. Fernandez had played just 29 games for Benfica before Chelsea swooped, having arrived in Portugal from boyhood club River Plate. After an inconsistent start to life in London, a hernia problem derailed the second half of his 2023/24 season and then in July 2024 he was also criticised for singing an insulting song about France players with his Argentina team-mates. The midfielder has been linked with a possible departure from Chelsea but coach Maresca insisted the plan is for Fernandez to stay. Advertisement "This season he has been very, very good. He can be even better next season starting from the first day," said Maresca this week. "So, nothing to say about (the) speculation. He is focused on us and that's the most important thing." Fernandez set up new Chelsea arrival Liam Delap for his first goal in the win over Esperance and gave the striker guidance for the months ahead. "I spoke to Enzo and he told me when he gets the ball to just run," explained Delap. "It was a great pass and luckily it went in." With Nicolas Jackson suspended, Delap is set to start once more against Benfica and he knows right now providing him the ammunition is one of the world's most in-form playmakers. rbs/as

Report – Inter Milan Make Huge Decision On Young Striker's Future Amid Wild Transfer Speculation
Francesco Pio Esposito has earned the trust of new Inter Milan boss Cristian Chivu and will stay at San Siro next season. Per Sport Mediaset via FCInterNews, the 19-year-old striker will be part of the Nerazzurri squad for the 2025/26 season. Advertisement Despite intense speculation linking him with numerous Serie A clubs, Francesco Pio Esposito will stay at Inter. Furthermore, Inter's decision to keep the youngster probably means Mehdi Taremi will soon pack his bags. Inter Milan Decide to Keep Francesco Pio Esposito for Next Season SEATTLE, WASHINGTON – JUNE 24: Francesco Pio Esposito of FC Internazionale faces the media during the Training/Press Conference ahead of their FIFA Club World Cup 2025 match between FC Internazionale Milano and CA River Plate at Virginia Mason Athletic Center on June 24, 2025 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by) Esposito enjoyed a remarkable breakout season at Spezia last term. Indeed, he netted 19 goals in Serie B, helping the Aquilotti secure a place in the promotion playoffs. However, Spezia's loss to Cremonese in the semi-finals spelled the end of Esposito's adventure at Stadio Alberto Picco. Although many expected the teenage sensation to leave Inter for regular first-team action, Chivu has other plans. Advertisement Instead of departing for another loan, Esposito will fight for his place at San Siro after impressing the ex-Parma coach. He scored in his first start for Inter last night as Chivu's side dispatched River Plate 2-0 at the FIFA Club World Cup.
