Inter have confirmed the appointment of former Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri as the club’s new coach.
The 51-year-old succeeds Andrea Stramaccioni, who was sacked on Friday.
“FC Internazionale would like to announce that the club has appointed Walter Mazzarri as the new head coach,” read a statement on the club’s official club website.
“FC Internazionale would like to thank Andrea Stramaccioni for the great commitment and professionalism he showed in a particularly difficult year. Walter Mazzarri has signed a two-year deal.”
Former Sampdoria boss Mazzarri had been heavily linked with a move to San Siro after guiding the Partenopei to an impressive second-place finish in Serie A this season, ending his four-year reign in Sicily with the club’s highest league finish in over twenty years and sealing qualification for next season’s Champions League.
Inter will not compete in European competition next season after a disappointing campaign saw them end the season in ninth.

0 commentsThe Serie A giants have parted company with their young coach after a disappointing ninth place finish in a season that fell well below expectations
Inter have sacked coach Andrea Stramaccioni after just 14 months in charge.
Sporting director Marco Branca broke the news to the 37-year-old via a telephone call yesterday, following the Nerazzurri’s disappointing ninth-place finish in a campaign that included 16 league defeats.
Stramaccioni, who was hired in March 2012 following the departure of Claudio Ranieri, was contracted at the Giuseppe Meazza until the summer of 2015 and both parties are currently locked in negotiations to determine the value of the severance package.
The former Inter Primavera boss earned his reputation by guiding the youth side to victory in the 2012 NextGen series, defeating Ajax in the final and, following Ranieri’s departure, was appointed first-team coach by Massimo Moratti last summer on a permanent basis.
However, the club’s lowly league position and lack of European football next term have contributed to his exit just 12 months into his three-year contract.
Walter Mazzarri, who earlier in the week confirmed that he is leaving Napoli after guiding them to second in Serie A, is among the frontrunners to replace Stramaccioni.

0 commentsFootball betting, along with other forms of betting, requires
good knowledge to get the best results. A good knowledge of the game
combined with top tips is sure to get you the outcome you want, so
here are a few other factors to consider:
• A top football-betting tip is to keep in the loop of recent
happenings. Keep a close eye on up to date information on a team, this
way you can really see how they are doing or will do when you want to
place your bet. It is good to remember that injuries to certain
players may significantly decrease their chances of scoring.
• The Internet is your best friend. There is so much information out
there about your teams and their player’s, most clubs have their own
statistics and data page so it’s not too hard to find the correct
information.
• Know what team to bet on for the best outcome and don’t always
follow your heart by picking your home team, or the team you support.
This does not always get the best results. Consider a team’s strengths
and weaknesses before you choose a team, it is also best to measure
the two teams against each other in these terms. Your choice may
differ depending on which betting market you choose to go with.
• Looking into the history of the two teams head to head can show a
lot. How have past matches played out? Is there any particularly
angst between the two teams, which may bring out more red/yellow
cards?
• Know whom you are betting on. The more you know about a team, the better.
• Lastly, do your research around where you can place your bet. Look
around for offers so you can really get the most for you money. Again,
Internet is key, some sites offer brilliant cash incentives to get you
started with them. Alternately, if you’re not a die hard football fan
but fancy football games then look no further than www.luckynuggetcasino.com
to find football themed slots games as well as other major sports. Try
your luck today and see if you can win with a simple spin on the
infamous slot machines.

0 commentsThe Inter chief has suggested the former Manchester City manager could be replace Andrea Stramaccioni and downplayed rumours they have already agreed terms with Walter Mazzarri
Inter president Massimo Moratti has refused to rule out a move for former Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini amid ongoing speculation that they are ready to part company with current head coach Andrea Stramaccioni.
The 48-year-old, who coached Inter to three consecutive Serie A titles during a four-year stint from 2004 until 2008, was dismissed at City earlier this month and is believed to be one of the candidates to replace Stramaccioni if the latter were to leave the Giuseppe Meazza side.
“Is Mancini an option? Anything’s a possibility in football,” Moratti told reporters, before stressing that no final decision has been made about the future of Stramaccioni.
“There are no statements to give. I know he’s not feeling well, so it’s right that he’s had to rest. Nothing more than that. I really don’t think there’s any earth-shattering news to tell you.”
Aside from Mancini, Walter Mazzarri has also been linked with the position of Inter coach, but Moratti has insisted that no agreement exists with the former Napoli coach yet.
“Is Mazzarri signing? The rumour was going around but it’s not true.”
Mazzarri recently announced his decision to step down as Napoli coach after guiding them to second place in the Serie A table.
