Inter Milan top the Serie A table with 67 points, seven more than city rivals AC Milan. However, Inter lost the “Derby della Madonnina” last week, missing the opportunity to consolidate their lead.

In the following places are SSC Napoli (3rd place, 56 points), and Como 1907 is in 4th place, tied with AS Roma. The top is completed by Juventus.

The club’s management, led by Giuseppe Marotta, are ready to offer Cristi Chivu a long-term contract until 2029. The Romanian technician’s current contract expires in 2027, but the coach’s performances this season have convinced the officials to offer him the security of a long future at Inter, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Appointing Chivu last summer, in place of Simone Inzaghi, was a risky bet, but so far the results recommend it. Chivu is very close to winning the Serie A title in his very first season with the team.

The next important test for Inter will take place on Saturday, from 16:00, at the “Giuseppe Meazza” stadium, when they will receive the visit of the Atalanta team.
