Inter Milan coach Conte: Lukaku likely to face Atalanta

Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte is unconcerned over the fitness of Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgian missed both the 2-2 draw with Parma and defeat to Real Madrid due to muscular problems. But he is back for the clash with Atalanta today.

"This is the seventh game in 20 days, so there's fatigue, but also the desire to put in a good performance. We need to figure out who is in the best shape," said Conte.

“Lukaku trained with us, so he will very probably be called up. Our mood after the Real Madrid game is what it ought to be."
