Inter Milan vs. Roma preview
It was a summer of change for Inter Milan, despite the Nerazzurri winning the Italian league last season. The title-winning manager, Antonio Conte decided it was time to leave the club while Romelu Lukaku attracted the interest of his former club as he re-signed for Chelsea. The club however has remained in title contention; with it going down to the wire as Inter Milan, AC Milan and Napoli are all still fighting it out.
While Roma has excelled in the UEFA Conference League this season, it’s seldom the competition that the Giallorossi fanbase dream about at night. The semi-final tie against Leicester City will be important but if they’re to play for bigger trophies it is this domestic hurdle against Inter Milan which must be cleared first. English striker, Tammy Abraham has been the standout performer with 15 goals so far for the club; in his debut season.

Eternal Friends: Dzeko & Kolarov
It wasn’t long ago at all that Edin Dzeko and Aleksandr Kolarov called the Eternal City home. After all the pair made almost 400 appearances for Roma between them. Yet neither player was able to taste success with the club across their overlapping tenures and were lured away to Inter where it was easier to sample victory. Kolarov was part of the league win last year and Dzeko was part of the squad which won the Super Cup against Juventus in early 2022.
It’s a sad reality for Roma that it can’t retain its best players because the league finishes are far from appealing – not befitting the club which Francisco Totti spent the entirety of his career. Head coach, Jose Mourinho of course will endeavour the club gets back to the top of Italian stature, but without Champions League or even Europa League football it becomes a tall ask to attract and retain top players.
