⚠️ Inter: was this season a flop, what next for next year
⚠️ Inter: was this season a flop, what next for next year 🧐

The Scudetto lost to Napoli, the elimination from the Coppa Italia against Milan, the Supercoppa lost again to the Rossoneri, and finally, the heavy defeat in the Champions League final.

Inter has been enchanting at times, convincing especially in the Champions League where they were the team in form: the most minutes in the lead and the fewest minutes in disadvantage. But none of that was enough.

The questions are therefore legitimate: is the season a failure? And where will this Inter restart from?


The courage to try: Inter's limit

  • Al-Nassr consider move for Colombian winger Díaz

The Liverpool forward Luis Díaz is attracting interest from Saudi Arabia, with Al-Nassr considering a move for the Colombia international.

Díaz has two years remaining on his contract and is yet to enter talks on an extension. There has been no approach to Liverpool by Al-Nassr so far but Saudi interest in the 28-year-old is longstanding and, with Cristiano Ronaldo a possible departure before the Club World Cup, the club are likely to be in the market for another big name.

Whatever the result of Champions League final, PSG’s owners have positioned club as game’s next superpower

Put a bisht on it. That’s a wrap. At first glance it might be tempting to see the 2025 Champions League final as one of the more obviously high-European occasions in recent football history.

Twenty thousand Parisians and Milanese will trace out a thousand mile right-angle this weekend, north from Lombardy, east across Alsace and the Rhineland, there to spend a long weekend wandering the white stone streets of Munich, with its reassuringly terrifying gothic cathedral, its pounded-meat cuisine de terroir, its altstadt boutiques selling wristwatches priced at roughly the same the cost as the average human arm, and finally on to the lighted dome of the Allianz Arena, dumped down in the green fringes to the north like a giant alien doughnut.

While Manchester United ended the season trophyless and 15th in the Premier League, they did at least get to join their comparatively triumphant Liverpool, Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle counterparts in having an open-top bus parade. Currently serving club-enforced penance for their shambles of a season on a money-spinning post-season tour of Asia, the players – well, four of them at least – were forced to endure the indignity of being paraded through the streets of Kuala Lumpur on a heavily branded giant red doubledecker with ‘Glory, Glory, Man United’ blaring through its speakers, presumably to try to drum up interest in upwards of 12,000 unsold tickets for their Maybank Challenge Cup match against a scratch Asean All Stars side, scheduled to take place the following day.
