Inter suffered their first Serie A defeat of the season as AC Milan won the Derby della Madonnina 3-1 at San Siro, a result that knocked Cristian Chivu's side off the top of the table.

Manuel Akanji has sent a clear message to his Inter teammates ahead of Saturday’s mouth-watering Derby della Madonnina, warning that they cannot afford another sluggish start against their city rivals AC Milan. The Swiss defender believes the Rossoneri must be forced to earn every opportunity as the two Italian giants prepare for a clash that could have major implications for the title race.

Former striker Hernan Crespo believes Inter remain the team to beat in the Serie A title race this season. However, the Argentine insists city rivals AC Milan have improved drastically under Ruben Amorim and could easily close the gap in the coming weeks.

Former Belgium international Radja Nainggolan is facing a requested two-year jail term and a €105,000 penalty after Brussels authorities accused him of financial offences. The legal proceedings against the 38-year-old ex-Serie A midfielder stem from his arrest in January 2025 during a wider anti-narcotics investigation in Antwerp.
