FC Internazionale Milano is poised to bolster its squad as Victor Moses undergoes his medical examination today, marking the final step before he officially signs with the club. With medical clearance achieved, legal representatives Pierfilippo Capello and Andrea Bozza, alongside Moses's agent Neil Fewings, have gathered to finalize the contractual details at Inter's headquarters. The addition of Moses, who previously played under coach Antonio Conte at Chelsea, aims to expand the team’s tactical options as stated by sporting director Piero Ausilio.
The signing of Moses isn't the only significant news for the club, as head coach Simone Inzaghi is set to extend his stay at Inter until 2028. Following what began as a rocky start to the season, the coach has reinvigorated the team, leading them to impressive performances both domestically and in the Champions League. Current results position them well as they pursue their ambitious target of achieving 89 points by the end of the calendar year 2024, boasting an average of 2.37 points per game, representing a remarkable turnaround.
While the team is celebrating its current momentum, they are also preparing for imminent challenges. This includes their next encounter with Como at San Siro, where tactical adjustments will be necessary due to injuries within the squad. Reports indicate Simone may opt to rest Nicolò Barella, who is recovering from a muscle injury, leading to possible starts for either Davide Frattesi or Piotr Zielinski to fill his position.
After the match against Como, the attention will shift to the team's defense, where Inter faces potential setbacks with the availability of players like Stefan de Vrij, who may miss the match along with Francesco Acerbi and Benjamin Pavard. The coach commented on the situation, stating, "Non sarà facile. Fabregas sta mostrando le sue qualità in serie A, sarà una gara molto complicata," highlighting the challenge his team faces against Como's technical abilities. With the possibility of losing key defenders, the coach foresees some strategic adjustments on how they can field their defensive setup, potentially starting Alessandro Bastoni along with lesser-known players Bisseck and Carlos Augusto.
While the on-the-pitch dynamics are taking center stage, the community of FC Internazionale expresses its heartfelt condolences to sporting director Piero Ausilio following the passing of his mother, Rosa. The club released a statement saying they are standing with Ausilio and his family during this difficult time, reiterative of their commitment to supporting their staff during personal hardships.
Simone has quickly emerged as one of the club's enduring figures, recently signing a contract extension until June 30, 2026, with hopes of easing his tenure even longer should the team continue to perform well. Upon discussing this potential future, there’s heavy speculation about the coach's aspirations aligning with those of legends like Helenio Herrera who led the team for several seasons.
But for now, the immediate focus is squarely on the upcoming match against Como. With all eyes on strategies and player performances, the Inter fans remain hopeful for continued success as they navigate through both team enhancements and collective goodwill. The undercurrent of unity and resilience within the team signals brighter days as they aim for another strong finish this year, building on past glory.
