Inter Milan have announced a thigh injury suffered by Joaquin Correa.

There were major concerns for Correa after he left the pitch in tears during Wednesday's Coppa Italia win against Empoli.

"After sustaining an injury in Wednesday's cup match against Empoli, Joaquin Correa underwent an MRI scan at the Istituto Clinico Humanitas in Rozzano on Friday morning," Inter statement read.

“The scan revealed a Grade 2 flexor strain in his left thigh. His condition will be re-assessed in a fortnight's time."

Inter have the derby on February 6 against AC Milan.
