Concerning Trend – Inter Milan Have Second Oldest Squad In Serie A After Napoli | OneFootball

Inter Milan and Napoli are reportedly the two ‘oldest’ teams in Serie A, with average squad ages approaching the 30-year mark.

According to the latest report from the CIES Football Observatory via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri have the second-oldest team in Italy’s top flight.

Experience prevailed last season as Napoli and Inter fought the Scudetto until the final weekend.

Unfortunately, Antonio Conte returned to haunt the Nerazzurri, beating them to the punch by the skin of his teeth.

Despite Oaktree’s youth-oriented policy, Inter’s squad remains among the oldest in Serie A.

Indeed, Cristian Chivu might have signed several youngsters in the summer, yet his squad has an average of 29.35 years. It places them second in the Serie A standings.

Meanwhile, only Napoli have an older squad, with an average age of 29.56 years.

As a result, Inter and Napoli are among the oldest in European football, let alone Italy.

Chivu’s former side Parma boast the youngest team in Serie A, with an average age of 24.26 years.
