Marcus Thuram cleared for Champions League semi-final vs Barcelona

Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram has returned to group training and is expected to be available for the Champions League semifinal first leg against Barcelona, providing a crucial boost to an attack that has struggled in his absence. Thuram, who recently recovered from a muscle injury, missed Inter’s last three matches, all of which the team lost without scoring. Club officials and coaching staff are optimistic about his readiness, and his presence could help reignite Inter’s offense, which has seen a significant drop in goals without him. While Thuram’s return is likely, defender Benjamin Pavard will miss the match due to an ankle injury sustained against Roma, with Yann Bisseck expected to start in his place. Additionally, Denzel Dumfries, Alessandro Bastoni, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are available for selection after recovering from injury and suspension, further strengthening Inter's squad ahead of facing Barcelona.
