Inter appoint former player Cristian Chivu as head coach
Inter have appointed their former defender Cristian Chivu as head coach following the departure of Simone Inzaghi. Chivu, who made 168 appearances as a player for Inter and won the Champions League title in 2010, has signed a two-year deal through to 2027. The 44-year-old joins from Parma, having only signed for the Emilia-Romagna team in February on a contract until 2026. He took over when they were 18th and a point from safety but, in what was his first senior head coaching role, managed to steer them to a 16th-place finish from his 13 games in charge, avoiding relegation by five points. Inzaghi, 49, guided Inter to Saturday's Champions League final only to leave earlier this week, before later being hired by Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal.

Inzaghi's Inter had a trophyless 2024-25 but did take the Serie A title race to the final day — missing out by one point to champions Napoli — and reached the Champions League final, losing 5-0 to Paris Saint-Germain in Munich. They side also fell short in domestic cup competitions, losing to rivals Milan at the Coppa Italia semi-final stage and in the Supercoppa Italiana final.
