Atletico Madrid vs Inter Milan – Chivu Might Bench Sommer After Derby Showing

Atletico Madrid vs Inter Milan – Cristian Chivu Might Drop Yann Sommer

Inter Milan manager Cristian Chivu is reportedly considering leaving Swiss goalkeeper Yann Sommer on the bench for the upcoming Champions League clash against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.

Sommer’s recent performance in the derby disappointed the coaching staff, prompting internal discussions about a possible change in goal. The decision would mark a significant shift, as Sommer has been Inter’s regular starter since his arrival from Bayern Munich.

If Chivu opts for a rotation, it might give the backup goalkeeper an opportunity to prove his readiness on a major European stage.

According to reports, “Yann Sommer could start Wednesday's Champions League clash between Atletico Madrid and Inter Milan on the bench.”

The move, if confirmed, reflects Chivu’s demand for sharper focus and higher consistency ahead of this decisive stage in the tournament.
