Inter Milan manager Cristian Chivu continues to defy expectations, putting the Nerazzurri on the brink of a long-awaited domestic double. 

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 45-year-old has instilled clear ideas and a strong sense of identity within the squad.

Cristian Chivu has laid the foundations for Inter’s impressive run this season.

Despite lacking experience in top-flight management, the Romanian coach has done excellent work at San Siro this term.

Moreover, Inter’s stunning 3-2 win against Como last night further underlined the team’s resilience under the former Parma boss.

Even though the Nerazzurri faced a two-goal deficit, they fought back to secure a place in the Coppa Italia final.

Hakan Calhanoglu, who sparked Inter’s comeback, is facing an uncertain future at San Siro.

Indeed, his contract expires next summer, with the runaway Serie A leaders yet to tie him down to a new deal.

Furthermore, Inter could part ways with star center-back Alessandro Bastoni, who missed last night’s game due to injury.

Despite Bastoni’s absence and Lautaro Martinez also missing through injury, Inter showed their depth and managed to see out another massive result.
