Inter Milan owners Oaktree see Simone Inzaghi as the best man for the job despite the risk of a first trophyless season since 2019/20.
Per La Repubblica via FCInterNews, the American fund has deemed the campaign ‘excellent,’ largely thanks to a substantial income.
Simone Inzaghi had dreamt of becoming the first Nerazzurri boss since Jose Mourinho to win a coveted treble.
However, those ambitions fell apart in April when AC Milan dumped Inter out of the Coppa Italia semi-finals.
Napoli would then leapfrog Inzaghi’s charges at Serie A’s table summit.
Therefore, the reigning Scudetto holders could miss out on all three domestic trophies this term.
Yet, the board trusts Inzaghi and will keep him at the steering wheel beyond the summer.
Inter Milan Owners Oaktree Happy with Simone Inzaghi
Inter will finish this Serie A season in the top two and could still pip Napoli to the title on the final day.
Meanwhile, they’ll contest their second Champions League final in three years after overcoming Barcelona in the semi-final.
Finally, the Italian giants have booked a place in the summer’s FIFA Club World Cup.
Inter’s international achievements have significantly bolstered the club’s finances, pouring around €250 million into their coffers.
As it turns out, Oaktree appreciates this financial aspect more than anything.
Therefore, they’ll stick with Inzaghi.
