Simone Inzaghi has explained his departure from Lazio.

Inzaghi pulled out of contract talks yesterday and is expected to take charge of Inter Milan.

“With the strongest emotion, I wish to inform you that from June 30 my marvellous adventure with Lazio will conclude," he told news agency ANSA.

“I thank the club, the President, the players and fans who accompanied me in these splendid 22 years as player and coach.

“We fought and won together. These colours will always remain in my heart: the Biancocelesti will forever be part of my soul."
