Massimiliano Allegri named 22 players for Saturday's match at San Siro, but Alessandro Buongiorno, Luca Marianucci, Scott McTominay and Giovane are all missing.
Massimiliano Allegri has announced his squad for Inter-Napoli, kicking off at 18:00 CET (17:00 UK, 12:00 ET) on Saturday 5 September at the Giuseppe Meazza. Twenty-two names make the list, including Benoit Badiashile's first call-up since joining Napoli. Beukema and Favasuli are also included, alongside Alisson Santos, Anguissa, Contini, De Bruyne, Di Lorenzo, Gilmour, Højlund, Lang, Lobotka, Lucca, Rafa Marín, Meret, Milinković-Savić, Neres, Olivera, Politano, Rrahmani, Spinazzola and Vergara.
Four players are absent. Alessandro Buongiorno, who still has several weeks out, and Luca Marianucci, expected back after the international break. Scott McTominay is also missing — he is due to have an ablation procedure for a cardiac arrhythmia in the coming days. Giovane had surgery on Thursday 3 September at Villa Stuart for a groin hernia.
