Inter Milan veteran Henrikh Mkhitaryan could reportedly return to the starting lineup in Wednesday’s UEFA Champions League clash against Bodo/Glimt.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 37-year-old is likely to start in the middle of the park after being left on the bench against Juventus.
Cristian Chivu’s men continue their European journey in the knockout playoff round against the Norwegian surprise package.
Indeed, the first leg takes place at the Aspmyra Stadium on Wednesday, with Inter looking to build on a 3-2 derby win against Juventus.

Despite netting a late winner on Saturday, Piotr Zielinski might drop to the bench, as he desperately needs some rest.
Meanwhile, Nicolo Barella and Hakan Calhanoglu both featured in the Derby d’Italia after returning from injuries.
However, referee Federico La Penna booked them both in the second half, meaning they will be unavailable for the next Serie A fixture.
Therefore, Chivu is considering starting them both on Wednesday, with Mkhitaryan expected to occupy the final midfield spot.
