Inter Milan Manager’s Impressive Champions League Record – Reached Knockout Stage 5 Times Out Of 5 Attempts | OneFootball

Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has shown remarkable consistency in the Champions League (UCL) in recent years.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 48-year-old has set the benchmark for other tacticians.

The ex-Lazio boss has exceeded expectations at the San Siro since replacing Antonio Conte in 2021.

In addition to guiding Inter to their 20th Scudetto, he has re-established them as one of Europe’s fiercest teams.

Indeed, Inter featured in the Champions League grand final in 2023 but narrowly lost to Manchester City in Istanbul.

Despite still waiting for their first European title since 2010, the Serie A giants are on the right trajectory.

Inter Milan Boss Simone Inzaghi More Consistent Than Any Other UCL Manager In Last 5 Years

For context, Simone Inzaghi is the only manager to reach five consecutive Round of 16s in the past five years.

Not even Pep Guardiola has done that after Real Madrid crashed Man City out in this season’s playoffs.

Moreover, Carlo Ancelotti has won two Champions League titles with Los Blancos.

Yet, his brief stint at Everton in 2021 helped Inzaghi beat him in this category.

On the other hand, Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid failed to make it out of the group stages in 2022/23.
