After snatching qualification from Porto in the previous round, Inter Milan will return to the quarter-finals of the Champions League twelve years later. On this occasion, the Nerazzurri will face another Portuguese team, Benfica, on April 11. A great reward for the Italian club which has experienced a long crossing of the desert on the most prestigious of European stages. It is therefore an appointment not to be missed for the players of Simone Inzaghi, all the more so if they want to make people forget a particularly gloomy season in Serie A. It must be said that the new resounding defeat at the weekend last against the great rival of Juventus (1-0) showed the difficulties currently facing the Lombard club.

For the moment, the Milanese club is third in Serie A behind the untouchable Napoli and a surprising team from Lazio. If this classification does not fully reflect the problems of Inter Milan this season, the lack of continuity in victory is truly glaring when we dwell on the statistics of the Nerazzurri. In the league, Lautaro Martinez’s teammates have 9 defeats in 27 games, the worst total in the Italian top 8. Despite the very good run in the Champions League, these results do not lead to optimism. This is why the leaders of the club based in Lombardy are already starting to prepare the outlines of the team for the next season in order to anticipate as much as possible and not to reproduce the mistakes of the last summer transfer window.

Nine players are on the way

Against Juventus during the Derby of Italy, the Milan coach, Simone Inzaghi, fielded 8 players over 30 years old. A new statistic that shows the urgency of planning a profound change in the workforce at the Nerazzurri. In addition to the inevitable departure of Romelu Lukaku who will return to Chelsea at the end of the season and that of Milan Skriniar at the end of the contract in June, other players are being pushed out by the Lombard leaders. Indeed, to be able to recruit, you need money and the Milanese club is not in a very stable financial situation. It will therefore first be necessary to separate from several players before being able to hope to recruit intelligently. This is why, according to Gazzetta dello Sportit will be essential to get as much money as possible from the 5 outgoing players: Edin Dzeko, Stefan De Vrij, Marcelo Brozovic, Denzel Dumfries and Joaquin Correa.

For the last named, his future with the Nerazzurri is sealed. The Argentinian disappointed the Milanese club in particular because of the price of his transfer, namely 31 million. But for the other two, the future seems more uncertain. In addition to the contracts which are about to expire, the fabulous salaries of the first two players named could be a big problem in the future for the Lombard leaders. Failing to lower their salary, they would be pushed out, still according to the Italian media. In this perspective, the Bosnian and the Dutchman could be tempted to look elsewhere before hanging up their crampons. Finally, Marcelo Brozovic and Denzel Dumfries are not having the best season of their careers, but the suitors to welcome them should be knocking on Inter’s door before the end of the season.

For Inter Milan’s other 30-somethings like Samir Handanovic and Danilo D’Ambrosio, this season also feels like the last in Lombardy. André Onana is now the titular goalkeeper in front of the Slovenian goalkeeper also at the end of the contract in June. For the 34-year-old Italian defender, it was Federico Dimarco who settled on his left side and now seems unstoppable. The revolution is still in its infancy for Inter Milan, but it should be truly resounding as a wave of departures seems to be increasingly taking shape at the end of the season.
