Ex Inter Milan President Brands Simone Inzaghi As ‘Best Coach Ever’ After Record-Breaking 200th Serie A Win | OneFootball

Former Inter Milan President Steven Zhang feels Simone Inzaghi is the “best coach ever” after his 200th Serie A win over Lecce.

Zhang shared an Instagram story lauding the 48-year-old for reaching that Serie A milestone quicker than any coach in the league’s history, via FCInter1908.

Inter coach Simone Inzaghi reached 200 wins in Serie A yesterday.

That is between the 48-year-old’s spells in charge of both the Nerazzurri and Lazio.

And it took Inzaghi a total of 332 matches in the Italian top flight to reach that figure.

This means that the Inter coach has managed to reach 200 wins faster than any other coach in the history of Serie A.

Previously, it had been Max Allegri, who had coached the likes of AC Milan and Juventus. Allegri had managed to win 200 matches in 338 attempts.

However, Inzaghi has gotten there a bit quicker than the former Rossoneri and Bianconeri coach.

Zhang Lauds Simone Inzaghi As “Best Coach Ever” After Record-Breaking Serie A Win Vs Lecce

Simone Inzaghi has been in charge of Inter since the 2021.

The former Lazio coach joined the Nerazzurri to take over from Antonio Conte that summer.

And since his arrival at the San Siro, Inzaghi has really had a massive impact. He has shaped the team in his image.

Inter have won the Serie A title, two Coppa Italia trophies, and the Supercoppa Italiana on three occasions with Inzaghi as coach. They have also reached a Champions League final.

Therefore, the decision to appoint Simone Inzaghi in 2021 certainly looks to be a good one.

Steven Zhang was Inter President at the time that Inzaghi arrived.

Therefore, the former President was a key figure in the decision to appoint Inzaghi. He chose the former Biancocelesti coach along with the club’s directors.

Zhang is no longer Inter President since the takeover of Oaktree Capital last May. However, he still follows the team, and congratulated Inzaghi as the “best coach ever.”
