Inter Milan head coach Cristian Chivu has offered public support to goalkeeper Josep Martínez following his involvement in a fatal road collision.
A man died last week after his electric wheelchair collided with a car driven by 27-year-old Spain international Martínez.
Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident, which occurred in the province of Como, with police stating the wheelchair appeared to have veered into the path of the vehicle.
Martínez, who provides back-up for Yann Sommer, was left out of Inter's squad for a 3-0 Serie A win over Fiorentina the following evening before being an unused substitute during Sunday's 2-1 success at Verona.
