Tata Martino has strongly suggested that Sergii Kryvtsov will be fit enough to feature for Inter Miami in the US Open Cup final this week.
Speaking to the Miami Herald, the MLS manager confirmed that Kryvtsov will likely be available for Inter Miami’s historic clash against the Houston Dynamo later this week.
The Ukrainian international was forced off this weekend in Inter Miami’s 1-1 draw against Orlando City due to a suspected concussion, though Martino has said that Kryvtsov was suffering from migraines.
As a result, Kryvtsov is now expected to be fit enough to play for Inter Miami on Wednesday, with the 32-year-old one of Martino’s most expensive players at the back.
Indeed, Inter Miami will want every player available for this week’s cup final, and Martino has now seemingly confirmed that Kryvtsov will play.
Martino said: “He is suffering from migraines. He had migraines and when he has migraines he has issues with his vision, but I do not think he will have any problem playing in Wednesday’s match.”
Inter Miami need Kryvtsov if they’re to win the US Open Cup
With Lionel Messi and Jordi Alba already doubts for the US Open Cup, Kryvtsov being out would have been another hammer blow for Inter Miami.
However, the latest on the 32-year-old defender is nothing short of encouraging, with Kryvtsov set to feature for Inter Miami in Florida on Wednesday night.
The Ukrainian international is one of Martino’s most important players, and Kryvtsov’s presence will make a massive difference if Inter Miami are to win even more silverware this year.
