Cassano Doubles Down On Anti-Inzaghi Rant: ‘He Already Had An Agreement With Al-Hilal, Took The P*ss Out Of Inter Milan’ | OneFootball

Antonio Cassano feels Simone Inzaghi “already had an agreement with Al-Hilal” and that the coach “took the p*ss” out of Inter Milan.

Cassano continued his scathing attack on the former Nerazzurri coach speaking on the Viva el Futbol podcast, via FCInterNews. He also criticized Nerazzurri captain Lautaro Martinez.

Simone Inzaghi’s departure from Inter Milan to join Al-Hilal continues to cause controversy.

And one of the harshest critics of the 49-year-old has been former Nerazzurri striker Antonio Cassano.

Cassano had been consistently critical of Inzaghi whilst the coach was at Inter. However, he looks to have taken his attacks to a new level after Inzaghi’s departure.

Cassano holds that Inzaghi left Inter purely for financial motivations, and that the coach was disingenuous about this.

“I keep on saying it,” said Antonio Cassano. “He said he want abroad to study football, the Arab league… He’s taken the p*ss out of everyone, he’s taken the p*ss out of Inter fans.”

“Because he kept saying ‘love’ this and ‘heart’ that. Perfect.”

Cassano insisted that Inzaghi “went there to earn €25 million a year, and he already had an agreement beforehand.”

“That’s a fact,” the former striker said. “He destroyed Inter, and now the problems are starting to show.”

Meanwhile, Cassano also hit out at Inter captain Lautaro Martinez for his public criticism of teammate Hakan Calhanoglu.

“I respect Lautaro,” said the former striker. “But if you have something to say, and you’re angry, you go into the dressing room.”

“But putting a guy who’s done everything Calhanoglu, who’s never complained about anything or caused controversy, on blast like that?”

“He may even have the right to say, I’m tired, I want to go home,” Cassano said of Calhanoglu’s links to Galatasaray.

“But you can’t make him take all the blame. Because then, at a certain point, what willpeople say.”

“He wants to go back home, so it’s all his fault.”

“Lautaro made a mistake,” Cassano said. “If you have something to say to him, tell it to him to his face.”
