Inter have been handed a boost ahead Christmas as defender Benjamin Pavard has returned to training with the team. The Frenchman was sidelined since the start of November after suffering a dislocated kneecap, with an expected recovery time of two months.
Calciomercato.com and others report that Pavard has returned to training ahead of schedule and worked with the team Friday morning, ahead of their trip to the Stadio Olimpico.
The Nerazzurri are set to face Lazio on Sunday evening, and Pavard could potentially be in the squad that makes the trip to the Italian capital.
Coach Simone Inzaghi is expected to make a decision on the French defender on Saturday after assessing his progress in todays training session.
Juan Cuadrado, Denzel Dumfries and Stefan de Vrij are all expected to miss the match through injury.
