Inter and Chile striker Alexis Sanchez could be out for at least a couple of months following an injury with his national team. The first diagnosis, made by Chile's medical staff, revealed a possible dislocation to the tendons in his left ankle, with the player expected to undergo further medical tests in Milano.
Chile's coach Reinaldo Rueda talked about Sanchez's situation in the press conference ahead of the match against Guinea: "We won't have Sanchez for this game and, should he undergo surgery with Inter, for two or three more months. It's a shame, he was starting to play with his club, he scored two goals and played in the Champions League. We have to wait, the next few hours will be crucial as we will know what decision Inter will make. For us he is Alexis Sanchez, for Inter he is one of their players", concluded Rueda.
