Inter Milan’s veterans seek redemption in Season's final push

As Inter Milan prepares for three decisive matches, a core group of players are driven by unfinished business from past heartbreaks

Inter Milan's path toward the clash with Lazio begins today. It's the first of three critical matches that could turn the season into an extraordinary masterpiece—if luck and hard work align. 

Being mentally and physically ready is essential for both the final Serie A fixtures and the Champions League final, as TuttoSport highlights via Fcinter1908.it:

“From today, Inter Milan begins preparing for the final matches of its ‘Italian and European’ season—three games that could completely rewrite the club's destiny. 

Like night and day. Black and white. Inter Milan could finish with a historic double or end up empty-handed. 

Or with ‘just’ the Champions League, a trophy they’ve been chasing for three seasons. Or perhaps the scudetto, which just days ago seemed to have slipped away."

Ten players with something extra to prove

What’s certain is that ten players will face these days with a unique spirit—one of double redemption. 

Aside from the directors, Simone Inzaghi, Lautaro Martínez, Nicolò Barella, Alessandro Bastoni, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Federico Dimarco, Denzel Dumfries, Matteo Darmian, Stefan de Vrij, and Joaquín Correa all carry personal motivation.

What do they have in common? All ten were part of the Inter Milan team that narrowly lost the 2021–22 Serie A title to Pioli’s Milan and the squad that fell to Manchester City in the 2022–23 Champions League final. 

Those painful memories now fuel their determination to turn the tide.
