Marotta said in a statement on the Inter website: “On behalf of our shareholder, Oaktree, and the whole club, I would like to thank Simone Inzaghi for the work he has done, for the passion shown and for the sincerity in today’s discussion, which led to the mutual decision to part ways.
“It is only when we have fought together to achieve success day by day that we can have a frank discussion like the one that happened today.”
The 49-year-old’s contract had been due to expire in 2026.
