Inter confirm Samir Handanovic has “a hairline fracture to the little finger in his left hand,” but do not specify a recovery time for the goalkeeper.
The captain missed last night’s 2-0 win away to Udinese and seemed to have part of his left hand immobilised under a wool glove.
“Samir Handanovic has undergone an X-ray examination following an injury to his left hand suffered in training,” read a statement this morning.

There had been reports the Slovenian would be out of action for three to four weeks, which would rule him out of big games against Milan, Lazio and Ludogorets in the Europa League.

Daniele Padelli played against Udinese in what was his first Serie A match since August 2016.
