Inter Vs AC Milan – Cristian Chivu Can Rely On His Secret Weapons On His Coaching Debut In Derby Della Madonnina | OneFootball

Inter Milan manager Cristian Chivu is gearing up for his first coaching appearance in the famous Derby della Madonnina.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the 45-year-old has several aces up his sleeve ahead of Sunday’s derby.

Keen to build on their three-game winning streak in Serie A, Inter will take on AC Milan at San Siro this weekend.

Furthermore, the Nerazzurri will be out to avenge an underwhelming five-match winless run against their fiercest rivals.

Meanwhile, Cristian Chivu is readying for his touchline debut in this mammoth fixture.

Unfortunately, injuries have not eluded Inter at the beginning of the Romanian’s tenure.

However, unlike last year, backup players have hit the ground running, with Ange-Yoan Bonny and Francesco Pio Esposito running the show.

Indeed, the young strikers have been superb in the absence of star center-forward Marcus Thuram.

Furthermore, Piotr Zielinski has rediscovered his best form after a lengthy period of adaptation.

Therefore, Chivu can rely on a mix of in-form starlets and experienced campaigners to challenge Milan on Sunday.
