Simone Inzaghi Has Won Inter Milan Over €200M In Prize Money Since Joining – Dwarfing Ex-Chelsea & Spurs Coach’s Total | OneFootball

Inter coach Simone Inzaghi has brought the total earnings in prize money that he’s brought in over the past two seasons to over €200 million with progression to the final of the Coppa Italia.

This is highlighted in today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews, who note that the coach has reached the landmark figure after beating Juventus on Wednesday, and that this has taken him miles clear of Antonio Conte in this regard.

Inter will take in €3 million just for reaching the Coppa Italia final against Fiorentina, whilst they will earn €4.5 million if they beat La Viola to win the trophy, and €2 million if they are to be on the losing end.

Then, the Nerazzurri are set to earn 45% of the gate receipt for the Stadio Olimpico for the final of the competition, which is expected to be around €2 million.

On top of this, participation in the final of the cup brings with it guaranteed participation in next season’s Supercoppa Italiana, a four-team edition of the competition, which could bring with it earnings of as much as €7 million if the Nerazzurri are to win it as they have done in the past two seasons.

None of these earnings are to be scoffed at, although the real big money that Inzaghi has brought in in terms of prize money has come from Europe.

This season alone, the coach has brought in €93 million and counting, before gate receipts from the San Siro are taken into consideration, and could make it even more if the team are to reach the Champions League final by beating AC Milan over two legs.

To underscore the significance of this, Tuttosport note that in the 2020-21 season under Antonio Conte, Inter’s earnings from the Champions League totalled just €37.8 million.

The newspaper also suggest that even the unexpectedly weak league performances by the team under Inzaghi could be mitigated somewhat financially.

Last season’s second placed finish still brought with it €26.6 million in earnings.

Meanwhile, the dreaded scenario of failing to qualify for the Champions League next season could be softened if the Nerazzurri were to make a deep run and even win the Europa League, something which could hardly be precluded given Inzaghi’s knack for cup competitions.
