Report – Italy Star Wingback Returns To Inter Milan Starting XI Vs Bayern Munich At Expense Of High-Performing Brazil Defender | OneFootball

Federico Dimarco will likely dislodge Carlos Augusto from Inter Milan’s starting line-up in tomorrow’s clash against Bayern Munich.

Per Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Italian star is the favorite to start on the left wing despite the latter’s uptick in form.

Carlos Augusto took Dimarco’s place in last week’s first leg at the Allianz Arena.

Furthermore, his role proved crucial as he set up Davide Frattesi for Inter’s last-gasp winner.

Therefore, Simone Inzaghi has a massive decision to make.

Dimarco’s minor fitness issue forced Inzaghi’s hand in Munich.

However, the 27-year-old has regained full fitness, meaning he should return to the starting XI.

It would be a natural choice had it not been for Augusto’s meteoric rise in recent weeks.

Indeed, the Brazilian has gone from strength to strength during Dimarco’s absence.

Therefore, he deserves the benefit of the doubt, especially after a scintillating performance against Bayern.

Yet, he may have to settle for another cameo appearance.
