Inter have made three changes to their squad list for the 2011-12 Champions League, as Diego Forlan, Andrea Poli and Angelo Palombo have been added to their original roster.

The trio has taken the places of Thiago Motta, Jonathan and Philippe Coutinho, who all left the Giuseppe Meazza side this winter.

Forlan and Poli initially were not initially registered for the competition at the start of the campaign, whilst Palombo only joined Claudio Ranieri's men from Sampdoria in the January transfer window.

Young striker Luc Castaignos, who was accidentally left out before, has again not been included in Inter's Champions League contingent, whilst experienced defender Ivan Cordoba has been overlooked also.

New signing Fredy Guarin is unavailable due to being cup-tied following his January move from Porto, and will have to concentrate on domestic fixtures.

Inter meet French giants Olympique de Marseille in the last 16 of this year's edition of the Champions League; the first leg takes place at the Stade Velodrome on February 22.
