Inzaghi eyeing glory and legendary status

Coaching master class gives Nerazzurri a second chance at era-defining title

Simone Inzaghi is on the verge of becoming a true Inter Milan great, as he leads his team to the Champions League final with another chance at an era-defining triumph to make up for the pain of conceding the Serie A title to Napoli.

Inter has become one of Europe's top teams under Inzaghi, and reaching the final of the continent's leading club competition for the second time in three seasons is a testament to the impressive job he has done since taking charge in 2021.

The 48-year-old has had to navigate off-field turbulence and serious financial problems, which have left the Nerazzurri with a transfer budget that's a fraction of those enjoyed by nouveau riche clubs like Saturday's opponent, Paris Saint-Germain.
