New Inter Milan Head Coach Insists On Tactical Flexibility To Get Inter Milan Back On Track | OneFootball

New manager Cristian Chivu is hellbent on getting Inter Milan back on track following a heartbreaking 2024/25 season.

Per Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, tactical flexibility could be key to Inter’s resurgence under the Romanian.

Inter had been synonymous with tactical rigidness under Simone Inzaghi.

Indeed, the 49-year-old insisted on a 3-5-2 set-up and was quite stubborn about it.

However, Inzaghi is now part of the club’s history, with Chivu eager to turn Inter’s fortunes around.

Like Inzaghi, Cristian Chivu favors a formation with three players at the back.

Yet, the 44-year-old has a different vision for the 20-time Italian champions.

As it appears, Chivu is open to making a minor tweak.

Therefore, fans could see Inter a slightly different set-up next term, with Chivu ready to launch a 3-4-2-1.

Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram have been critical to Inter’s success over the past two years.

However, the Romanian tactician is considering switching to a single center-forward.

Therefore, players like Luis Henrique could get a prominent role next term.
