According to the latest rumours, Inzaghi could take the matter a step further and bench the star man for this evening’s trip to San Siro.

He’d instead start Felipe Caicedo with Joaquin Correa.

Jony Rodriguez and Marco Parolo are also pushing to start rather than Senad Lulic and Lucas Leiva, while Stefan Radu has been ruled out with a fever and replaced by bastos.

Probable line-ups

Inter: Handanovic; Godin, De Vrij, Skriniar; Candreva, Vecino, Brozovic, Asamoah; Sensi, Politano; R Lukaku

Lazio: Strakosha; Luiz Felipe, Acerbi, Bastos; Lazzari, Milinkovic-Savic, Parolo, Luis Alberto, Jony; Correa, Caicedo
