Inter Milan continue to support coach Cristian Chivu after back-to-back Serie A losses, including a 4-3 defeat to Juventus that left them six points behind the leaders. The 44-year-old began his tenure with a 5-0 win over Torino but now faces scrutiny ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League clash against Ajax. Management remains confident in him.
As the 2025-26 Serie A season unfolds, Inter Milan find themselves under early pressure despite a strong start under new head coach Cristian Chivu. The Romanian manager, who replaced Simone Inzaghi, began his tenure with a resounding 5-0 victory over Torino, signaling a promising new era for the San Siro giants. However, back-to-back losses against Udinese and Juventus have quickly shifted scrutiny onto Chivu and his squad.
The latest defeat came in the high-stakes Derby d’Italia, where Juventus overcame a late deficit to beat Inter 4-3, leaving the Nerazzurri with their worst Serie A start in 14 years. These results have seen Inter fall six points behind early leaders Napoli and Juventus, adding further pressure ahead of their Champions League clash with Ajax on Wednesday. Despite the poor run of form, the club’s upper management continues to back Chivu, showing confidence in the 44-year-old’s vision and decision-making.
Reports suggest that Inter’s leadership and the former Parma defender remain aligned, emphasizing stability over reactionary changes. Fans and pundits, however, have expressed concerns, pointing to early-season missteps and transfer policy issues, which may test both Chivu and Inter’s management if results do not improve in the coming weeks.
