Inter boss Simone Inzaghi speaks out on future after embarrassing Champions League final loss

Inter Milan boss has cast doubt on his future at the club after they were in the final. A brace from Desire Doue and strikes from Achraf Hakimi, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Senny Mayulu earned a dominant win in Munich.

It is the second time in two years that Inzaghi has guided to the final, with his side losing 1-0 to in the 2023 edition, and the Italian was asked about his future after the latest defeat to PSG.

Inzaghi is under contract at Inter until 2026, but Al-Hilal have reportedly tabled a huge offer in a bid to try and tempt him to Saudi Arabia. And when asked if he will still be in charge when Inter begin their Club World Cup campaign on June 17, Inzaghi said: "I don't know how to answer that question.

"I came here to speak as a sign of respect and politeness after this defeat that was very painful. Teams emerge stronger from defeats, that might seem like a platitude, but it's true and we already did in the past by going on to win the Scudetto.

"There is disappointment tonight, but we must keep our heads up high, knowing we faced a team that deserved the victory."

When pushed further on his future, Inzaghi added: "There is too much disappointment right now to talk about the future, we've had 58 games to get here since July 13 and talking about the future now does not feel right."

Reflecting on the game as a whole, Inzaghi admitted his side had "conceded goals that we don't normally allow". He told reporters: "I'm proud of these guys for what they've achieved on this journey.

"Tonight, PSG deserved to win the Champions League – they were better than us. We approached the game poorly, became stretched and made their victory easier. For us, this is a tough loss.

"Credit to our opponents, but we didn't play a great final. That said, I've thanked the players for this season, and I'm proud to be their coach. It's disappointing, but it doesn't erase what we’ve done.

"We needed to do better tonight – me first and foremost – but the lads have been incredible this season. This group deserves praise. In the coming days, there will be a meeting with the Club and we'll talk.

"Technically, we didn't play like we know we can. They were winning second balls, and, after conceding the first goal, we became stretched, leading to this defeat. Tonight, we conceded goals that we don't normally allow."
