Official: Inter name Champions League squad; Akanji in, Palacios out

Inter have confirmed their squad list for the upcoming UEFA Champions League campaign, with deadline day signing Manuel Akanji included and Argentine defender Tomas Palacios left out of the team.

In a statement on their official website, the Nerazurri confirmed their squad.

There are no other notable absences or inclusions in the squad but Palacios will perhaps be disappointed at being left out after reportedly rejecting moves to Santos and Trabzonspor this summer in favour of staying in Lombardy.
