Once he won the Scudetto, the footballer Inter Milan Francesco Acerbi takes a break with a view on European Cup from Germany, where he wants to be 100%. The message written by the Nerazzurri defender is clear: from now on he prioritizes the Euro because he wants to be in full condition with the Italian team before the summer sporting event. That is why it has been ‘removed’ from tomorrow’s match against Torino.
In a clear message on his social networks, Acerbi wrote: “My priority has always been to give my best with this (Inter) shirt. That’s why in recent months I’ve played with gritted teeth despite the pain in my groin. Now, With these two stars sewn on my chest, I have time to recover and be 100% for the next commitments.”
This Instagram post was accompanied by an Italian flag, in a message that made it clear that what he had in mind was the ‘azzurri’ team. It is possible that, in addition to the match against Torino, he will also be removed for the match against Sassuolo, on Saturday the 4th Acerbi hopes to be on the pitch for the last home match (the third weekend of May against in Lazio) with the presentation of the cup to the Italian champion. But the most important thing for him is getting the Euro Cup in shape. Inter seem to be backing him and, obviously, Spalletti, the Italian national team coach, is delighted.
