Marcus Thuram and Denzel Dumfries have not reacted well to what Lautaro Martinez had to say after Inter Milan’s loss to Fluminense.
Per Corriere della Sera via FCInterNews, several Nerazzurri stars have felt targeted by El Toro after Inter’s Club World Cup exit.
Lautaro Martinez lost his temper after the Nerazzurri slumped to a 2-0 defeat to Fluminense on Monday night.
Indeed, in a now-infamous statement, the 27-year-old urged all unsettled players to leave San Siro.
That has caused unrest in the dressing room.
Though Lautaro primarily targeted Hakan Calhanoglu, other Inter stars have found themselves called out.
Indeed, Thuram looked particularly sluggish against Fluminense.
Despite recovering from another fitness setback, the Frenchman was a mere shadow of his former self.
The same goes for Dumfries, who lacked his usual grit and determination on the flank.
Therefore, Lautaro’s words have left the Inter locker room in tatters.
It’s now up to Cristian Chivu to defuse the situation. Furthermore, he must help the Nerazzurri start the new season on the front foot.
