Simone Inzaghi’s departure, after the heavy defeat in the Champions League final, marked a bitter end to his spell at Inter. What particularly annoyed the fans, however, were the rumors of a deal with Al-Hilal that had reportedly been reached even before the match in Munich.

These rumors were confirmed by the CEO of the Arab club, Esteve Calzada, in an interview with the BBC, where he stated that Inzaghi had already made his decision some time ago, but had asked to wait out of respect for Inter.

Here are his words:

“Inzaghi to Al-Hilal? It might seem like a sudden development, but it’s the result of hard work. He was preparing for an important match and asked us to wait until after the final. Everything had been decided but nothing was signed before the final, only because he asked us to wait out of respect, which is certainly fair enough.”
