What happened. Djed Spence arrived from Tottenham Hotspur on August 15 for €30m plus bonuses but in poor physical shape, missing Inter's first six matches. After gym work and a specialised routine, he is set to train with the squad from next week.

• His first on-pitch session came on September 11 after time in the gym.
• Coach Cristian Chivu should have him training with teammates from Monday.
• He could debut against Parma in Serie A on October 10 at San Siro.

A first full session puts the wing-back on course for a competitive Inter debut against Parma at San Siro.
