Boss Antonio Conte is likely to make a late decision on his top scorer, with reports from Diario AS claiming a final update will be made in the next 24 hours.
Former Barcelona star Alexis Sanchez is expected to be fit to feature at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano after missing the last three weeks of action due to a knee problem.
Inter have fared slightly better than Real Madrid in Champions League action so far in 2020/21, picking up two points from two games compared to Los Blancos’ sole point.
