The Champions League finalist from last season will apparently be led by a coach who has only been on the bench of a senior team in 13 games.
Simone Inzaghi will not be succeeded by Cesc Fabregas, who remains at Como, but by Cristian Chivu - so claim Italian media.
Yesterday had several twists and turns in the Fabregas case, and today brought a definitive "no" from the Kom leaders, so Inter had to turn to alternatives.
Patrick Vieira, who has a contract with Genoa, was reportedly also in the running, but the choice fell on the Romanian.
Kivu was close to extending his contract with Parma, with whom he secured survival in Serie A, and even turned down an invitation from Ajax, but an invitation from Inter changed everything...
With the Nerazzurri, he was the European champion in 2010 as a player, and from 2018 until the end of last year, he led the younger generation of the Milanese giants.
He took over Parma in mid-February and was a factor in the season's finish, which ensured survival, but next to his name it says that in 13 games as a coach of a senior team, he has three wins and three losses, and seven draws.
The Romanian will receive a two-year contract at "Meaca" and a salary of two million euros per season.
