Simone Inzaghi, 48, succeeds Luciano Spalletti, crowned Italian champion at the helm of Naples last season. The Italian technician, who has been working at Inter since 2021, was distinguished by a jury made up of directors of sports publications, indicated the Lega Serie A, which did not specify the result of the votes.
“This distinction could only go to Simone Inzaghi,” said the boss of the Italian League, Luigi De Siervo, quoted in a press release. “He is now one of the most important coaches on the international scene and has achieved an almost perfect run with his team, with the best attack, the best defense and a series of 28 consecutive matches without defeat,” he recalled. .
Inter have flown through the 2023-24 season with 29 wins, six draws and just two defeats in the league. Before the end of the 38th and final day of the Italian Championship on Sunday, it has a 19-point lead over its runner-up, AC Milan. Inter also won the Italian Super Cup, but were eliminated in the round of 16 of the Champions League, of which they were finalists last season, and of the Italian Cup, of which they were double title holders.
