Juve not a consideration for De Boer's Europa team

Having recorded his first win with a comeback victory over Pescara at the weekend, the new coach refuses to be distracted by the imminent Derby d'Italia.

Frank de Boer has rejected any notion that he will field a weakened Inter side in Thursday's Europa League tie against Hapoel Be'er Sheva due to this weekend's clash against Juventus.

Inter earned its first win of the De Boer era in a come-from-behind 2-1 victory over Pescara on Sunday, with captain Mauro Icardi scoring twice.

The Nerazzurri now start their campaign in Europe's secondary competition at home to Hapoel before hosting Serie A champion Juve three days later.
