Inzaghi focus: 50 million of Al-Hilal before CL final!

In the exciting atmosphere of the upcoming Champions League final on May 27, 2025 between Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain, the trainer of Inter, Simone Inzaghi, makes headlines. Behind the scenes, a potential change to Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia ensures conversation. According to Laola1 , al-hilal offered an attractive two-year contract for 50 million euros.

Inzaghi, whose contract runs with Inter until 2026, said during a press conference that the current speculation about his future was "crazy", especially before such a significant game. "There are inquiries from Italy, abroad and also Arabia," emphasized the 49-year-old. Nevertheless, he plans to talk to the club manager about the upcoming future after the final.

the look ahead

Association President Giuseppe Marotta has classified Inzaghi's views as normal reactions by a trainer. He explained that the club managers would like to discuss the plans with Inzaghi in the coming week. Optimism prevails: Inzaghi is expected to go into his fifth year at Inter.

Inzaghi, who took over the coaching office in 2021, has already taken two Champions League final participants in just three years and was able to win series A in 2024. This year only narrowly missed the championship title because they lacked a point to victory, which only reinforces the disappointment after the defeat in the last league game against Napoli.

The mood in the team

Inzaghi described the loss of the championship as difficult to accept, but warned to be positive in the upcoming game. "We have to look ahead," he said, reporting of a pleasant get-together with the players after the como game, which supported the team atmosphere.

The trainer also gave an update to Lautaro Martínez, who had missed three games due to a muscle injury, but was ready for the como game again. Martìnez is expected as a key player in the final against PSG.

In addition to Inzaghi's situation, there are also discussions about the alternating strategies of trainers in the Champions League. For example, Christoph Gartier from PSG only changed on average after 73 minutes, which is criticized by the fans, while other coaches, such as Pep Guardiola from Manchester City, change theoretically after 49 minutes. However, these performance is contrasted with Inzaghi's preparation for the crucial game in which the squad planning is of greater importance than to focus on exchange ideas.
