Ghanaian Kwadwo Asamoah failed to make Inter Milan's squad for the 1-1 stalemate against Atalanta in the Serie A on Saturday night.
Earlier, this week it was that Asamoah had recovered from a knee injury and expected to be in the team for the clash.
However, Antonio Conte decided against including the versatile player in his list as his side dropped points at home.
Lautaro Martinez scored in the fourth minute but Atalanta profited from slack defending to find the equaliser in the second half.
The draw leaves Inter on top with a point above Juventus, who play AS Roma on Sunday night.
Asamoah has been an integral member of the Nerazurri's since arriving from rivals Juventus two seasons ago.
However, this season the ex-Udinese midfielder has only featured in 8 Serie A games because of injuries.
