Last summer, Cristi Chivu signed a two-year contract with Inter. Even though he had minimal experience as a coach for seniors, the Romanian received the trust of one of the biggest teams in Europe, and the resident from Resisi confirmed it.
Inter, under the command of the technician from Resisi, is the leader in Serie A and qualified for the semi-finals of the Italian Cup, but has already left the Champions League, a competition in which last season the Nerazzurri played in the final. The management of the club gave assurances that Cristi Chivu will continue on the technical bench of the Milanese, of course, if there will not be a huge fall of the team.
Javier Zanetti, vice president of the Lombard group, was asked about the Romanian’s future. “Chivu confirmation? Yes, the plan is to continue with him long-term. We are happy, it’s his first year and he is doing well. Inter are still in the race on two fronts”said the former great defender, who played at Inter alongside Chivu between 2007 and 2014.
He will extend his contract until 2029
Cristi Chivu will soon sign a two-year contract extension with the Milanese group, so the deal will run until the summer of 2029. Tuttomercato noted the other day: “Cristian Chivu will extend his contract with the Nerazzurri until June 30, 2029. The current agreement is valid until the summer of 2027, but the club’s bosses have put a new contract on the table, with a salary increase.
The management is delighted with the excellent work the Romanian is doing and with the obvious progress from match to match and has proposed a new deal. In addition to the new contract, valid until 2029, his salary, currently 2.5 million euros per year, will increase to 3.5 million euros per season, plus bonuses. The Chiefs credit Chivu with rebuilding the squad, which was devastated after last season. For the owners, the management, the players and even the fans, only a real coach can do that.”
