Inter Milan and Simone Inzaghi have yet to make a final decision on whether to continue on together.
The Nerazzurri coach's current contract runs out at the end of next June.
By all accounts, Inter are preparing to offer Inzaghi a new contract. This would include a significant pay increase for the 49-year-old former Lazio coach.
However, there is also the offer from Al-Hilal in the background. The Saudi Pro League club have put absolutely enormous wages on the table to try and tempt the Inter coach.

In the meantime, of course, Inter Milan and Inzaghi have the Champions League final to think about.

However, there will be little time to wait around after that.
Therefore, Inter will meet with their coach just a couple days after that final, reports the Corriere dello Sport. They report that the decisive summit will be on Tuesday.
Inzaghi will consider whether he still feels that the project at Inter is the right place for him. Particularly if he wins the Champions League tomorrow, and feels that there's nowhere to go but down.
Meanwhile, Inter will aim to convince their coach that they can offer him support in the transfer market moving forward.
In any event, it should be very clear after Tuesday's meeting whether or not Inzaghi will stay.

If the 49-year-old decide to head for the exit door then Inter will have to find a successor.
Having missed out on Max Allegri to AC Milan, the Corriere report that the Nerazzurri's preferred candidate would therefore be Como coach Cesc Fabregas.

During his time at FC Barcelona and PSG, Neymar played in two Champions League Finals. Advertisement The Brazilian star experienced both outcomes in the Champions League Final. He won the UCL with Barcelona in 2015 and lost the final with PSG in 2020. Ahead of the Champions League Final, Neymar gave his personal experience of anticipating the final, which in many soccer fans' eyes is the biggest game of every season, every year. When asked what he did to prepare ahead of the Champions League final, Neymar mentioned how different both the 2015 and 2020 finals were for him. Neymar: "Oh, nothing, it was very calm for me. In the first final, I slept with my mother and my son the night before the match, woke up, went to the game, and we won the title. As for the other final, it was during the pandemic, so we stayed at the hotel, rested, went to the match, then met with the family, but unfortunately, we lost in the second final." Neymar on the Champions League competition Soccer fans know the importance of the Champions League, and many wonder if the players feel the lore of the competition before a big game in the tournament.

One of the best tournaments in the world, and to be there and live this experience is truly amazing. I think it's hard to explain the feeling when you hear the anthem, when you're listening to a match in the Champions League. It's amazing, truly amazing. Anyone who's had the chance to play in it knows exactly what I'm talking about." PSG and Inter Milan Stars on UCL Final PSG star Ousmane Dembele is on the verge of becoming the main candidate to win the Ballon d'Or.

The Argentine star still has not won the Champions League trophy in his career, and he dreams of lifting it with Inter Milan, proving the importance of this trophy. Lautaro Martinez: "It's true, I've won many important things, a World Cup, the Copa América, several trophies with Inter. The Champions League is the one I'm missing, and it's a very important goal. I'm happy, proud, and excited to play another final. We'll try to play the perfect match.'

Doué Starts For PSG Against Inter Milan in Champions League Final
At this point in the season, there are no surprises. For Paris Saint-Germain, there was only one question regarding their starting lineup, and that was whether Désiré Doué or Bradley Barcola would start alongside Ousmané Dembélé and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in PSG's attack. On Saturday, PSG and Inter Milan face off in Munich in the UEFA Champions League final. Prior to kickoff, Luis Enrique released his starting lineup: In goal, Gianluigi Donnarumma gets the nod and will look to continue his impressive form in the knockout stage. Advertisement In defense, Marquinhos and Willian Pacho will line up at center-back. At right-back will be Achraf Hakimi and left-back will be Nuno Mendes. In the midfield, PSG will go with João Neves, Vitinha, and Fabian Ruiz. It will be critical for those players to control possession and win the ball back. In attack, it's the aforementioned Doué, who at 19 years old, will become the first French player in history to start a Champions League final before the age of 20. Kvaratskhelia will get the start after joining the club last January, and Dembélé has a chance to secure the Ballon d'Or with a win and an impressive performance. PSG is seeking its first Champions League trophy. They last appeared in the final in 2020, a 1-0 loss against FC Bayern Munich.
