I think the replacement options are not limited to LWB but may also include LCB and RWB positions, thanks to Carlos and Darmian's versatility.

poor guy! get well soon
Specially as this preseason would have been so crucial for him. He would get more integrated to our team and the tactics, he'd be part of the squad from the beginning (as each season is its own). Now it will be basically the same thing for him as the past season, he "joins" in January, and will probably be that one extra guy.

Interesting to see how we will react but NOT replacing him would be a big risk.

Tuttoshit says that Perisic could be an option

Watch us get linked with Spinazzola and Marcos Alonso
Spinazzola going to Napoli. Kurzawa is the other free agent, so I guess Marcos Alonso is inevitable.

Let's be real, he's never gonna make it here. He's not even starting for Canada ffs.

That's not relevant at this point. I don't think they even play with wingbacks.

But relevant is this injury which basically pushes back his trajectory at Inter further one year. Most probably he'll be replaced, he misses pre-season and he's gonna be the odd man out when he returns to the squad in full fitness. Such a bad luck for this guy.

Indeed big chance this was it for him at Inter since if you don't hit it immediately here, most probably you are out and now this guy will be out when he absolutely would have needed to be around to build his true Inter career.

Here's something interesting for our revenue/financial guys here on FIF:
The FIFA Club Protection Program - which guarantees compensation to the Nerazzurri as if it were a sort of insurance policy, officially in force since 2012. We announce immediately that in the case in question it will not be an exorbitant amount and that it is only triggered when the injury suffered by the player exceeds at least four weeks for recovery. In the case of Buchanan, the stoppage will be four months, so Inter will be entitled to compensation.

FIFA reimburses Inter for Buchanan: the amount received​

The maximum insurance ceiling for this type of policy is 7.5 million euros, but the amount the Italian champions will earn will not even come close to this figure. As per the statute, the compensation is for a maximum of 365 days and is calculated on the basis of the fixed salary earned by the player - therefore any bonuses or other types of external agreements are excluded.

The amount collected by Inter is less than one million euros (LaPresse).

To calculate how much will actually enter the Nerazzurri coffers, just check Buchanan's net salary (1.5 million euros per year) and get the monthly amount, which corresponds to 125 thousand euros per month. If the winger is quick and returns at the stroke of the fourth month, then Oaktree will be able to benefit from €500k. If the months, however, were to be five, then it will be €625k.
Of course, it is not a sum that will make a club like Inter rich, but it's still better than nothing.
