Inter's Conte subbed offers to manage Real Madrid

The Belgium international has scored seven goals in as many matches for Inter this season, including both in a 2-2 draw at home to Borussia Moenchengladbach on matchday one.

He missed Sunday's (AEDT) 2-2 draw with Parma with a thigh problem and has not travelled to Spain for the same reason.

Alexis Sanchez has returned to training after sitting out the past three matches, although Inter coach Antonio Conte said it was unlikely he would start in Madrid.

Inter is third in Group B with two points from two games while Real needed two late goals last week to salvage a 2-2 draw at Gladbach and register its first point.
