Simone Inzaghi 'to leave Inter Milan' immediately after losing Champions League final to PSG

Simone Inzaghi is set to leave Inter Milan after their devastating 5-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final, it has been reported.

The Inter boss has won six trophies with the Italian side since being appointed as manager back in 2021.

But a seventh trophy evaded him at the Allianz Arena, with Inter completely dominated by a rampant and attacking PSG side.

Achraf Hakimi and Desire Doue made it 2-0 before half-time and, truthfully, few would have anticipated an Inter fightback in the second half.

It was effectively game over when Doue made it 3-0 with a superb finish into the right corner, before Kvaratskhelia added a fourth.

And academy graduate Senny Mayulu, off the bench, smashed in a fifth on 87 minutes to put further gloss on the scoreline.

As for Inzaghi, the Italian manager's contract at the San Siro expires in the summer and he has not been short of interest in the past.

He has previously been linked with moves to Chelsea and Manchester United, but has resisted temptation to depart the San Siro.

However, Sky Sports' Kaveh Solhekol reports that he is expected to leave Inter straight after the 2025 final to become manager of Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal.

Inzaghi was reported earlier this week to have held talks with Al Hilal chiefs, but he refused to comment ahead of the final.

The Saudi club have been linked with a big-money move for Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes this summer.

They also have ex-Manchester City full-back Joao Cancelo and former Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves on their books.

Inzaghi is set to become the first elite European manager to make the move to Saudi Arabia since the influx of playing talent began last summer.

Al Hilal originally made contact with Fulham boss Marco Silva after sacking ex-Benfica boss Jorge Jesus, but the Portuguese said he was happy at Craven Cottage, as per Sky Sports.

Inter's search for a domestic replacement for Inzaghi, should his exit be confirmed, may be trickier than first anticipated.

Massimiliano Allegri and Maurizio Sarri are expected to join AC Milan and Lazio after spells out of work, while Gian Piero Gasperini is set to be appointed as Roma manager after leaving Atalanta.

Antonio Conte, meanwhile, is likely to remain at Napoli amid rumours last week that he could leave the club after delivering the Serie A title, as per Fabrizio Romano.
