Simeone: ‘Inter and Lazio fans often ask me to come back – I would like it’
Diego Simeone revealed that he is often met with requests by supporters of both Inter and Lazio to return to Italy as a coach, a prospect which he confessed he would ‘certainly like’.

The Atletico Madrid coach was in attendance at the Stadio Maradona on Sunday evening to watch his son, Giovanni, be crowned Serie A champion along with the rest of the Napoli squad during the 1-0 victory over Fiorentina.

In an interview given to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Simeone told the paper he would enjoy the idea of returning to Serie A as a coach, but also admitted he does not know how much longer he will be able to continue in a managerial position after a 12-year stint with Atletico.

I don’t know how much longer I will be able to coach, I am 53 years old. Another 5? It is certainly a stressful job. But then I think that a few days of holiday were always enough to make me want to get back on the pitch.

The grass is like a drug for us. I often meet Inter and Lazio fans who ask me to come back. Who knows? I would certainly like it.”

“I have another year on my contract, we’ll see what happens.

I don’t really rate De Zerbi that much tbh. I think he’s about a Roma level coach and not much more. Also expensive, pass.
Are you implying Inter of 2023 isn't Roma level of old?

Anyways, I will not watch Inter if Simeone comes here. He is not worth the money.

Simeone is staying at Atletico for another year, even tho a couple of months ago it was being said that hes leaving for sure.

Zhang Suning and Simeone don't look matching definitely.

There are rumors about a possible takeover by an Argentinian entrepreneur. He might wanna hire Simeone
What was your source on that?

Engineering company Techint Group categorically denies any interest in buying Inter Milan, refuting all rumors in this regard

As explained by FcInterNews, the company released a statement to address recent rumors reported by Il Giornale.

Techint is an Argentine company founded by Agostino Rocca in 1945 and has headquarters in Milan and Buenos Aires.

However, Nerazzurri supporters shouldn’t worry about it too much, as the rumors linking it to their club remain unfounded, at least based on the company’s recent statement.

“With regards to what appeared in some press outlets, we specify that the news of an interest by Gianfelice Rocca in the ownership of the football club Fc Internazionale Milano are devoid of any foundation and for this reason must be strongly denied”, reads the statement.
Simeone simply earns too much for Italy.

No idea, just read somewhere. I already commented on that in the Suning thread that it just media's attempts to unsettle us before the euroderby.

De Zerbi takes Brighton to historic European qualification

Italian coach Roberto De Zerbi has become a hero at Brighton and Hove Albion, taking the Premier League club into European football for the first time.
The side needed a victory against Southampton this afternoon to make it stick and achieved it with a 3-1 result that guarantees seventh place and at least a Conference League spot, but probably sixth too, as they have a vastly better goal difference than Aston Villa and now cannot be caught by Tottenham.

De Zerbi, who turns 44 next month, made his name at Benevento and Sassuolo before a brief experience at Shakhtar Donetsk was cut short by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

He signed for Brighton on September 18, stepping in when Chelsea had poached Graham Potter, but took them from strength to strength.

In all competition under De Zerbi, they amassed 19 victories, six draws and 12 defeats, qualifying for Europe and reaching the FA Cup semi-final, losing to Manchester United only on penalties.

De Zerbi has been linked with numerous jobs back in Italy, including Inter, Roma, Juventus and Napoli, but he seems determined to remain at Brighton.
There are not so many coaches that I rate above Inzaghi, but De Zerbi has huge potential. He beat Arsenal 3-0 while they were in the run for the title, while his days at Sassuolo are when they were playing their best football.

I know he has a big release clause in his contract and to be honest, for him it would not make too much sense to return to Italy, especially now that he is making a name for himself in the BPL.

I'm quite sceptical. I think Brighton were doing very well with their previous coach. Therefore he left for Chelsea, and they got De Zebri and now they are even better. It's not like he started from the scratch and did something exceptional. This is his first season as well. It could be a temporarily boost of form.

De zerbi is set for Premier League big clubs, do not think he will come back in Serie A and for sure not in this Inter that can't afford to buy players for his style.
If anything he would come for Napoli since Spalleti seems to be leaving

just feed De Zerbi with some primavera players and youngsters rather than gagliardini. it's not like Brighton gave him CR7, Messi, Neymar at his disposal. Their best player mitoma (this guy is very hot name for football lovers in our country) came from what? jupiler league?
