Inzaghi meets Ronaldo at sea: Why did you go to Arabia? With me you would score

Simone Inzagi has rarely lost his composure in front of the microphones even when his Inter side were at their most difficult and ended up being the target of all the fans for their poor results last season. "He is quiet and very calm", all those who know Simone, from his brother Pipo to the black leaders, who have appreciated the most during the season that we left behind, said in unison, the sobriety with which the coach spent his moments difficult to reach the Champions League final and to win the Italian Cup and Super Cup.

They were unanimous about this at Inter when it came to renewing the 47-year-old's contract for another year, which ended next June. As confirmed by his agent, Tulio Tinti, an agreement has already been found in Japan to extend the contract until 2025 with the salary expected to reach 5.5 million euros per season, while the signings are expected this weekend. A number of bonuses will be added in relation to the achievements and of course the objective of this season for Inzaghi and Inter is the second star. In the service of this goal, the black market has also been developed, for which Inzagi seems to already have a "hostage", Cristiano Ronaldo.

MEETING WITH RONALDO – The behind-the-scenes footage revealed by Corriere dello Sport involving Inzaghi and Ronaldo pertains to the duo's vacations. The background to the (accidental) meeting between them dates back to the end of June, when the coach was on a boat between Sardinia and Corsica and spotted Cristiano's 27m yacht through binoculars. There was much curiosity and desire to speak with him on the part of the coach, who took a water motor to arrive near the Portuguese's yacht.

"I'm coach Inzagi, I want to greet Christiano", are reported to have been the Italian's words, after which the player who invited him to come on board appeared. A conversation with bathing suits on and of course focusing on football, while they were drinking something, took place between them and did not last more than half an hour. Simone tried to add some spice to the conversation: “Why did you go to play in Arabia? I would have made you score 40 goals." Of course, Inzaghi's is a joke in these conditions of the transfer market, but Ronaldo in black and blue is a beautiful fantasy for the fans and maybe even for the coach. There was also interest in Inzaghi from Arabia, but he refused and chose to continue with Inter, with whom he hopes to reach his goals even without someone like Ronaldo in the team.
