La Gazzetta dello Sport report that Simone Inzaghi is set to pen a contract extension following his impressive work this season. The Nerazzurri coach led the club to the Supercoppa Italiana earlier this year, followed by the Coppa Italia and now the Champions League final on Saturday.
Gazzetta report that Inzaghi ‘has convinced everyone’, from president Steven Zhang all the way down the management chain’; the path of the Inter coach is considered extremely positive.
The newspaper point to not just the results he’s achieved this season, but also the ability he’s shown to be able to react to ‘the difficulties through daily work.’ Because of this, the newspaper believes that his contract extension will come soon, most likely after the final in Istanbul this week.
Gazzetta write that:
Now the club’s intention is clear: There is not only the will not to start a season with an expiring coach: if it had been only for that, the issue would have been overcome, overridden also by virtue of a changed landscape, in which all the components-players and coaches-have now become accustomed to working without long-term agreements in the portfolio. The reasoning is broader. Inzaghi has gradually earned on the field a renewal that would extend his contract by another season, that is, until 2025, basically as it happened a summer ago, just after mid-June.
