AI summary
John Stones suffered a left hamstring strain during Inter's match against Udinese on 15 September and will not face Roma this weekend. The English centre-back was forced off in the 62nd minute after feeling the injury while covering an opponent's run, and clinical and instrumental tests confirmed a muscular problem in the left thigh flexors rather than a tear.
The international break gives Stones time to recover before Serie A resumes with the Parma fixture, though his fitness will be reassessed in the coming days. The injury adds to a troubling pattern for the defender, who has suffered repeated setbacks at Manchester City in recent seasons.
