Get Inter back into the Chamnpions League and then it’s farewell to Luciano Spalletti and according to Corriere dello Sport, the coach already knows this.
Furthermore a backstory to his attack on Mauro Icardi, following Inter’s defeat to Lazio on Sunday has been revealed. Spalletti made it clear that his exclusion from the match was for the best interest of the locker-room and was even maybe their decision. This is because on Friday, Maurito did not apologise to his teammates. The Roman newspaper claim that if he had cleared things up then he would of been part of the game, but he did not take the opportunity. Therefore, it was right to make him pay for his poor attitude towards the group.
Regardless, Spalletti will leave at the end of the season so now we can start looking to the future. The Rome based newspaper has also revealed that the sponsors have asked Suning for a coach with a big media impact and it seems like moves have already been made.
Antonio Conte remains Marotta’s favourite but there are some details still to sort out. Not least, Spalletti’s two year contract worth almost 5 million euros net. The alternatives are Allegri, as Inter wait to see how his relationship with Juventus evolves. Finally, of course, there is Mourinho, this possibility seems stronger than ever when you consider that all the big European clubs already have long term coaches under big contracts at the helm.
