“Inter has never contacted Diego Simeone, on the contrary we are all lined up alongside Pioli.” This was the message from corso Vittorio Emanuele where Steven Zhang Jr emphasised that the trust in Stefano Pioli has a solid foundation and that the conviction to continue together until 2018 is strong, even if Inter would miss the third place and thereby the Champions League. Pioli is however not untouchable, should Inter continue this bad form for a while, Pioli faces the risk of being eliminated which would open up the discussions for who will take over. Where of course Simeone would be at the top of the list.
