Inter's clash with Sassuolo called off after further Covid-19 cases for De Vrij and Vecino

Inter have shelved their preparations for a meeting with Sassuolo on Saturday following further Covid-19 outbreaks in their first-team camp and are waiting on Serie A to confirm that their next outing can be rescheduled.

The Nerazzurri have seen four positive coronavirus tests posted this week, with Stefan de Vrij and Matias Vecino joining Samir Handanovic and Danilo D’Ambrosio in self-isolation.

With all activity at the club’s training base shut down in a bid to contain the spread, Inter have made it clear to the relevant authorities that they will not be taking to the field at San Siro this weekend.
