The world's highest-paid coach?! Inter boss Simone Inzaghi in talks over incredible contract as Italian mulls over Al-Hilal offer ahead of Champions League final showdown against PSG

According to Patrick Berger, Al-Hilal have identified Inzaghi as their top candidate to replace Jorge Jesus and are reportedly offering a salary that would surpass the current highest-paid manager. However, despite the lucrative offer, Inzaghi has put discussions on hold to concentrate on Inter's Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain.

Inzaghi has had a successful tenure at Inter, leading the team to multiple trophies, including the Serie A title in 2023–24 and reaching the Champions League final twice in three years. The Serie A giants are keen to retain him and plan to discuss a contract extension after the Champions League final.

Inzaghi's six trophies make him the third most successful manager in the club's history, behind Helenio Herrera and Roberto Mancini, who each won seven.

For now, the Italian manager remains fully focused on Inter’s Champions League final showdown against PSG in Munich on Saturday. The Nerazzurri are chasing redemption after their heart-breaking 1-0 defeat to Manchester City in the 2023 final. While they narrowly missed out on the Serie A title this season as Napoli clinched it on the final day, a European crown would mark a fantastic finish for Inzaghi’s side.
