The long-anticipated meeting in Milan has concluded, and the outcome was expected: Simone Inzaghi is no longer Inter’s coach! It was clear that many things had already been decided even before the experienced coach sat down with Beppe Marotta and Piero Ausilio; the desire to part ways may have been one-sided, but the Nerazzurri leadership duo didn’t particularly oppose it either. Thus, the ‘smoke signals‘ from a few weeks ago turned into ‘flames‘ this afternoon: Inzaghi is set to head to Miami as early as this weekend, where he will sign a three-year contract with Al Hilal. He is expected to make his debut on the bench on June 18, in a match against Real Madrid during the first round of Group H at the inaugural FIFA Club World Cup.⁴ᵏ Simone Inzaghi ✨️💙💙@_da1ia 🎨 pic.twitter.com/NkrX30RlRL— أخبار الهلال (@hilalstuff) June 3, 2025 “The time has come for me to say goodbye to this Club after a four-year journey, during which I gave my all. Every day I dedicated my first and last thought of the day to Inter. I was reciprocated with professionalism and passion by the players, managers and every single employee of the club. The six trophies won, including the Scudetto della Seconda Stella, together with the path in the UEFA Champions League in 2023 and a few days ago, are tangible evidence of how much my work has been supported by a communion of intent with my staff and with every member of Inter. I thank the shareholders for their trust that has never been lacking, the President and his collaborators for their daily help and dialogue. On a difficult day like today I think it is right to reiterate this sense of gratitude also for the discussion that ended a short while ago. We were sincere and together we decided to conclude this magnificent journey. I want to dedicate a final word to the millions of Nerazzurri fans who cheered me on, cried and suffered in difficult moments and laughed and celebrated in the six triumphs we experienced together. I will never forget you“ said Inzaghi in a statement published by the club.Inter at the crossroads, everything depends on InzaghiThe ultra-wealthy Saudi club made an offer that was truly hard to refuse—rumored to be between 60 and 75 million euros over three years. Inzaghi had already largely made up his mind that he wanted to leave, and the 0–5 Champions League final debacle against Paris Saint-Germain only pushed the decision over the line. Interestingly, Inzaghi bids farewell to the club on the same date he was officially appointed, four years ago. During his tenure, he won one Serie A title, reached the Champions League final twice, and claimed two Coppa Italia trophies and three Italian Supercups. According to the latest reports from Italy, Marotta and Ausilio are expected to move quickly, as Inter will also be participating in the Club World Cup in the United States and need to depart for Los Angeles by June 11. The top candidate to replace him is Cesc Fabregas, with Roberto De Zerbi also being considered as an option.##NAJAVA_MECA_8963231##
