Inter CEO discusses Inzaghi's growth, Spalletti's departure, and Thuram's contribution

During the inaugural day of the XI Edition of the Team Manager Course at Luiss in Rome, the CEO of Inter, Beppe Marotta, spoke about the current situation of the Nerazzurri, praising the work of Simone Inzaghi and more. The Inter CEO revealed a behind-the-scenes story about Luciano Spalletti, linked to his arrival in Milan. Inter, no injury for Thuram: out 15 days, he will be against Atletico Madrid. From Lukaku to Thuram: the backstory. A topic he focused on is the inclusion of Marcus Thuram in place of Romelu Lukaku in the summer: 'We would have taken Thuram anyway,' but if Lukaku had accepted, we would have found ourselves with him, Lautaro, and Thuram. Perhaps there wouldn't have been the same chemistry that we have today with Marcus and Lautaro. So, to put it crudely, it also serves... On the growth of Simone Inzaghi. 'Inzaghi, from a human point of view, manages the locker room very well, it's almost as if he were a teammate. The players have great respect for him, he has grown a lot and can still go a long way.' On the anecdote of Spalletti. 'In 2019, when I arrived at Inter, I sacrificed a figure like Luciano Spalletti, who I consider a good coach, but who was part of the present and the past. The culture there was not winning and I sacrificed a coach like him to get to Conte, who I knew well and who led us to win the championship in the second year.'
