André Onana is set to make his Inter debut against Bayern Munich tonight as Simone Inzaghi has reportedly chosen the ex-Ajax goalkeeper over Samir Handanovic.

The Cameroon international will make his debut at Inter tonight in their opening Champions League group stage game, reports Tuttomercatoweb.

The 26-year-old had joined the Serie A giants on a free transfer from Ajax this summer but watched Inter’s first five league games from the bench.

Tuttomercato confirms Nicolò Barella won’t start tonight, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan set to make his first appearance with the Nerazzurri from minute 1. The former Roma star was introduced in Saturday’s derby della Madonnina against Milan after recovering from a thigh injury.

Romelu Lukaku is injured so Edin Dzeko will replace the Belgian star, partnering with Lautaro Martinez up front.

Inter lost two of their last three Serie A games against Lazio and Milan, while Bayern collected two consecutive draws in the Bundesliga.

3 thought on “Inter-Bayern Munich latest: Inzaghi picks Onana over Handanovic”
  1. Onana in preseason looked better than Handa and I prefer him for this season but to not give him game time until a big match against one of the best teams in Europe is not very nice, hope he prevails and doesn’t get the Radu treatment who also didn’t have match fitness

  2. It’s very simple for inzaghi, play a front 3 of mikitarian lukaku lutaro Martinez with Hakan calhanoglu as the central play maker and inter will not only win the league ,
    They will qualify from this so called group of death , it won’t affect nicolo berrela playing because he and brozovic can perform as a holding Midfield per, a 4,3,3 will suit inter . don’t want to be drawn on the handanovic and onana thing ,they are both good keepers

  3. @Interello: You’re right. It is kinda weird for Simone to do this again after what happened to Radu last season, especially against one of the best attacking side in Europe, no less.

    Good luck to our cousin though, hopefully all 4 Italian teams make it to the next stage.
