Mehdi Taremi should be part of the Inter Milan matchday squad for tomorrow’s UEFA Champions League match against Monaco.
According to FCInter1908, the Iranian center-forward didn’t train with the rest of the squad today.
Indeed, he was working separately from the group, casting doubt on his fitness condition ahead of Monaco’s visit.
However, Simone Inzaghi should have the former Porto goal-getter at his disposal tomorrow night.
Taremi finally opened his Serie A account last weekend, converting a penalty in a 4-0 demolition of Lecce.
Therefore, it’d be a shame if he can’t help his team in a crucial European clash.
Although he was often Inzaghi’s first-choice striker in the Champions League, he’ll likely start on the bench tomorrow.
Considering what’s at stake, the Inter boss will likely go with Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram as his attack pairing.

Indeed, a draw against the French giants would see the Nerazzurri through to the Round of 16.
Avoiding playoffs is imperative for the defending Serie A champions amid a brutal fixture schedule.
Therefore, Inzaghi will probably field his heavy hitters from the start.
However, Taremi could get his chance in the second half.
