Introduced as a substitute, the 29-year-old suddenly let out a shout and grabbed at the back of his right calf—even though there was no contact leading up to the incident. The immediate reaction from both the player and the team’s medical staff suggested a serious muscular issue.
Zielinski had to be helped off the field by medical personnel, clearly in discomfort. Further tests are set to take place within the next 48 hours, which will determine the full extent of his injury.
Adding to Inter’s woes, Federico Dimarco, Nicola Zalewski, and Matteo Darmian are already sidelined. Losing Zielinski only compounds the club’s injury concerns as they navigate the crucial weeks ahead.
