Inter has confirmed that Lautaro Martinez sustained a left hamstring strain following clinical and diagnostic tests at the Istituto Humanitas in Rozzano. The club's official notice identifies the injury but does not provide a return date.
Diagnosis differs from recovery estimates
Bong Da Plus cited media reports suggesting the captain could remain out until after November's international break, approximately a month. That is a reported estimate rather than a timetable confirmed in Inter's medical announcement.
The Vietnamese media account uses a different muscle description. Inter's English statement specifies the left hamstring, which provides the official wording for the injury location.
A return will depend on recovery and further assessment. The short club notice does not announce full training resumption or clearance for a particular fixture.
A busy sequence ahead
The schedule cited by Bong Da Plus includes Bologna on October 17, Fiorentina on October 21, Venezia on October 25 and Como on October 28, followed by the Milan derby on October 31.
Those dates illustrate the coming workload without establishing that Lautaro will definitely miss every match. Inter has not issued that level of fixture-specific medical confirmation.
Marcus Thuram, Francesco Pio Esposito and Ange-Yoan Bonny are mentioned as attacking options, with starting selections still for the coaching staff to determine.
As captain, Lautaro contributes to link play as well as finishing. Inter must account for those responsibilities while monitoring his condition. The confirmed development remains the hamstring injury; the duration of his absence awaits further information.
