There are several interesting insights and numbers to note from this start to the season.

EL TORO'S PROWESS

The Nerazzurro captain has made an incredible start to the season, in terms of goals and performances. Lautaro Martinez has registered 17 shots on target so far this season: he has scored 11 goals from these shots in 10 appearances, with a conversion rate of 65%.

SOMMER’S CLEAN SHEETS

Yann Sommer has also had a positive start to the season. He made 23 saves in his first 10 official appearances for Inter: the Swiss goalkeeper has already collected 6 clean sheets between the Serie A and the Champions League.

PAVARD’S PRECISION

An addition that has brought quality and experience. Benjamin Pavard has slotted into Simone Inzaghi’s team perfectly, showing off all his talent. The French defender’s pass accuracy was 89% in his first 5 overall appearances for the Nerazzurri, completing 302 of 338 passes attempted.

A MATTER OF ASSISTS

The Nerazzurri's offensive play has shown an extraordinary level of fluidity. 19 of the 23 goals scored by the Nerazzuri have come from an assist; the player who tops this ranking so far this season is Marcus Thuram, providing 5 assists.

CALHANOGLU’S TENACITY

Running, intelligence and tenacity. Hakan Calhanoglu is becoming a cornerstone in the Nerazzurro midfield. This is proven by his 67 recoveries in his first 9 appearances of the season: no Inter player has more so far.
