Ivan Zazzaroni, director of the Corriere dello Sport, revealed a behind-the-scenes story related to Inter‘s elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Bodo/Glimt. Speaking on the Numer1 podcast, the journalist shared some confidences he received and touched on sensitive topics related to the technical and media management of the team.
“Inter’s exit from the Champions League is indeed serious, even though an executive spoke with someone I know and told him, ‘you’ll see that we’ll go out because we’re not structured,’” Zazzaroni declared. A revelation that sheds light on possible internal evaluations within the club before the European competition.
The journalist then shifted the focus to Chivu, a coach who arrived from Parma after just a few months and is currently leading the team. “He’s doing an excellent job and saying that he’s not top and that he made you lose money goes against Inzaghi,” he explained, highlighting a possible contradiction in the club’s communication.
According to Zazzaroni, the main problem concerns the approach to criticism: “Inzaghi made you earn money and yet he’s still attacked: the important thing on social media is to say something very strong, because if you do an analysis, no one cares.” A reflection that points the finger at the tendency to favor sensational statements over more in-depth and considered analysis.
