Cristian Chivu will sign his contract tomorrow to become the new head coach of Inter Milan.
This according to Sky Sport Italia transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio, via FCInterNews.
Inter Milan have made their decision. Reportedly, the Nerazzurri have decided on Cristian Chivu to replace Simone Inzaghi.
The Nerazzurri had been working on snapping up Cesc Fabregas to become Inzaghi’s successor.
However, Como President Mirwan Suwarson strongly rebuffed the Nerazzurri’s interest, and stated that the Lariani would refuse to release the Spaniard.
Meanwhile, Genoa coach Patrick Vieira was another name reportedly on Inter’s shortlist.
Cristian Chivu To Sign Inter Milan Contract Tomorrow
Cristian Chivu met with the Inter hierarchy today.
Di Marzio reports that the Romanian finalized the details of his contract with the Nerazzurri during the meeting.
Chivu will sign a two-year deal with Inter to take over as coach starting with the Club World Cup.
Di Marzio reports that Chivu will hold another round of talks with Inter tomorrow.
And the Sky transfer expert anticipates that those will be the decisive ones. Therefore, Chivu will sign his contract with the Nerazzurri tomorrow.
The only bright side from this is that Inter will very soon understand what this coach can do. I won’t be surprised if he doesn’t even start the season because the Club World Cup is definitely competitive and teams won’t roll over like a friendly. He will have decent amount of matches to see what he can do and what his players can do. As a team that reached the CL final he’s expected to go far in the competition….if it was Inzaghi it would’ve been ok for him to treat those matches as friendlies but for Chivu he must perform otherwise Inter will be taking a big risk if he fails to perform and blindly trust him to coach the team next season. A bad sign will be if he insists on deadweight players like Asllani, Arna, Taremi and Bisseck.
sell HAKAN and ASLANI , they were shiiiit all season long and buy replacements or change tactic!!! you cant play 3-5-2 with out good player on position of HAKAN and aslani, they were bad all season
every coach deserves his chance…..every coach started from somewhere…..Palladino was an academy coach before he was given Monza to start with let’s see what he can also do….there is also Dejan Stankovic and Motta, why didn’t we go for them
Chivu is promotion coach from primavera team to senior team, his short period time in parma was further training for him.
Hope he can be better than Stramaccioni
with all my respect to interista Chivu, i think Inter have chosen the worst available option on the market. I am expecting he will be sacked at half season, and there will be some troubles in our locker room because Chivu will not be able to handle the whole team.
That’s disgusting. There are so many great coaches available out there – Terzic, Ilguasil, Palladino,Tedesco, – that Inter has to sign another man who trains Serie A outsider. It reminds me of post 09/10 era, when Inter became a team that took 8-9-10th places in Serie A, even with budgets. Now, with this aged team, it will be the same – we won’t see UCL, nor UEL for years, if there will be no transfers and no coach with vision and ambitions.
for me i dont give a f66k inter playing boring or not (for people), because for me when inter play, i dont get sleepy because i watch the players to play good, be intelligent in the tactics, and of course win. that is enough adrenaline for me. watching inter in the dreadful era’s were frustrating because we signed clueless players, played with clueless systems, and stood without any compactness, ambition nor determination. chivu i hope for the first move, the players respect him because no players at inter have already reached what he has got, a treble.
I’m so mad at management right now. We have the money and we are being CHEAP. Only a good coach can make us win the league and go far in ucl not a coach who’s not even had HALF a season in serie an and is unproven.
Only reason we went after him is because he’s a yes man, he’s salary is low and mainly: he plays the dreadful 3-5-2 tactic. We don’t learn smh
If inter really believed in him they would give him atleast 3 years, not just 2 years.
He’s gone by winter when we are not even top 5 in the league.
Who would you suggest is a better and available option to get before CWC?
I cant see any other or better opportunities.
If the CWC wasn’t coming up the management had better time to find a more proven coach.
Remember that Inzaghi was also a yes man when he arrived and we were doing fine despite the fact we have been in a huge debt cuz of Covid. We signed old players for free and still won everything in Italy, plus 2 CL finals. Chivu has his own positives also despite being young and inexperinced. we will see, buying big players and having a expensive coach isnt a garantee you will win. Take a look at Mourinho, Arteta etc. Inters foundation is now concrete solid, we are not in debt anymore. We sign young players and pay the transfer fee like Sucic and Luis where we dont need permission of a coach. Marotta knows what he is doing, and if its a failure, ok this season will be shit, but he will then bring a better coach, cuz now we dont really have much choice.
Inzaghi at Lazio played so many crucial matches there with trophies and CL matches both good and bad with very limited players. That can’t be said for Chivu unfortunately. Inter were far too predictable with Izaghi but at least he had a system that worked and players backed it. The only thing Chivu must do to do well is to be brave and have that surprise factor as he has much better players and Inter can’t continue playing a defensive football all the time at every situation.
In my opinion a successful season for Chivu would be a top 4 finish + Coppa Italia. After the CL final disaster I wouldn’t put energy into making a deep run with this current team. I’d like to see some young players like Berenbruch, Topalovic, De Pieri, Carboni get some first team minutes through the year, something Inzaghi didn’t do. Maybe in 2-3 years if everything goes to plan and we develop some young players we can try again in CL but I’d much rather focus on domestic trophies for the time being. I’ll be happy if I see inter youth players start to develop over the course of the year.
Chievu is rubbish boring manager
Terrible decision!!! Why not a attack minded manager who has a proven record not stupid chievu.. he was never that good of a player just a very plain boring player who I imagine will manage the same boring style of football ffs!!!
At least I hope he will use our young players like Esposito etc.
di marco is a winger, still don’t understand why people think he is a LB/FB. He is better at attacking than defending.
wrong reply sorry
can’t even edit it. What a terrible comment section
Defensive tactics again…
Moving to a 433 with a squad with NO real wingers. Should be a fun season.
Aparently he switched to a 352 recently….w.e
Luis henquire and thuram?
Why don’t Bruno tells us why would Thuram, Barella, Lautaro and Bastoni stay and play under Chivu?
Because they have contract with club not coach?
Inter needs a pretentious coach with identity! I think Chivu will fit! The Final showed crystal clear the players lack identity! Chivu should bench asap Dimarco and others that don’t understand that the first 11 is NOT A GIVEN! You either perform or go fill cargo containers if sport is too hard.
It’s a bet with Chivu,but i above all else want to see dedication. I am way too disgusted by the lack of dedication that i’ve seen in the lost final.
Forza Inter! Felicitari Chivu si mult succes!
Glad that there is FIFA Club World Cup in coming days, it will be a good test for Chivu.
