Inter Milan made the tough call and finally bit the bullet as they sacked their manager Walter Mazzarri. The decision was mutual according to Inter’s spokespersons.
Inter Milan’s president Eric Thohir said in a statement,
“Today I made the difficult decision to dismiss Walter Mazzarri as head coach. It was a decision that I reached in conjunction with my management team,” said Thohir.
“It was a difficult decision because he has been continuously supportive of the direction that we have wanted to take the club, and he has worked tirelessly and selflessly for Inter, with both belief and passion.
Inter have replaced Walter Mazzarri with former boss Roberto Mancini who notably led them to three consecutive Scudetto’s from 2006-2009.
“I would like to thank him sincerely for his efforts. However, our goal is to regain our rightful position as one of the very top clubs in Europe and that’s why I am so happy to welcome back Roberto Mancini.
“His track record both at Inter and elsewhere speaks for itself, and his experience and hunger for success will drive the team to the next level.”
