Inzaghi dismisses Saudi rumours
Simone Inzaghi believes it would be "crazy" to entertain speculation regarding his future with Inter ahead of the Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain.
The 49 year-old, under contract with Inter until June 2026, has been linked in Italian media reports with a big-money move to Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal.
Inzaghi took charge of Inter in 2021 and won the Serie A title last year, also leading it to two Champions League finals in three seasons.
Inter will face PSG at the Allianz Arena in the second of those, having narrowly missed out on the Scudetto to Napoli on the final matchday of the domestic season.
"It's the same thing every year, when I was at Lazio and at Inter, luckily there are requests, from Italy, from abroad and from Saudi Arabia," Inzaghi said.
"But I think it would be crazy right now to think about that. As the [Inter] president said, the day after the game we'll sit down and talk, as we've always done over the years. With only one objective, which is the good of Inter."
A 2-2 draw with Lazio on the penultimate matchday of the Serie A season ultimately cost Inter, with even a final-day victory over Como not enough to overhaul Napoli.
Inzaghi wants the Nerazzurri to use their pain as motivation on Sunday, when they bid to rule Europe for the first time since their 2009-2010 triumph under Jose Mourinho.
"Friday was not an easy day, believe me. It was a very difficult championship to swallow. But you don't look behind, in football you always have to look ahead," Inzaghi said.
"You put your chest out and move forward. I saw the boys again today, we ate together in a place outside.
"After Como I didn't want to talk, today I saw them well. We have a big game in front of us, but this group has always excited me and I think it will do so again on Saturday."
Inzaghi also provided an update on captain Lautaro Martinez, who missed three Serie A games due to a muscle injury and was an unused substitute against Como.
"He's fine, he was already available for the Como game," Inzaghi said.
"In Como, if there had been a need, we would have had the captain on the pitch. The game was going well for us and I decided to wait."
