Sale of Inter Milan shirts ‘explode’ in Marseille ahead of PSG’s Champions League final | OneFootball

As Paris Saint-Germain prepare for one of the biggest nights in their history – a UEFA Champions League final against Inter Milan – an unexpected phenomenon has taken hold over 750km south. In Marseille, demand for Inter Milan shirts has exploded in recent days, with local retailers describing a “crazy” surge in sales of Nerazzurri colours.Speaking to BFM Marseille, a staff member at Foot.fr’s Plan de Campagne store explained:“All year, no one asks for Inter shirts. Now it’s like the whole city is becoming Interista. It’s madness!”The motivation behind this surge is no secret. Marseille supporters are desperate to protect the club’s status as the only French side to have won the Champions League, a feat achieved in 1993. PSG, despite over a decade of domestic dominance and Qatari investment, have yet to replicate it.“We’re the only ones in France to have it. We want to stay that way for many more years,” declared one proud OM supporter, clutching his newly purchased Inter jersey. Another summed up the city’s mood with three simple words: “Tous pour l’Inter.” (Everyone behind Inter). GFFN | George Boxall
