Inter Milan post ¬74 million losses, target Champions League return

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri speaks about his team's performance after their 0-0 draw with Inter Milan. Champions League qualification for next season has taken on added importance for Inter Milan after the Serie A club posted losses of €74 million for the 2015 financial year.
Without a place at European football's top competition since 2011-12, the Nerazzurri have seen their losses grow in recent years, partly due to the takeover through Erick Thohir in 2013 which saw a reorganisation of the club's debts as part of an ongoing restructuring process.
Thohir is unconcerned by the latest announced…

Jovetic’s Inter return after injury a bright spot in 0-0 draw vs. Juventus

From Daniele De Rossi's 37th league goal to AC Milan's first draw this season, here are five things you didn't know about the eighth week of Serie A football.

Steven Jovetic has scored 38 Serie A goals in stints with Fiorentina and Inter and was a constant threat against Juventus on Sunday.

In his first match for the Viola, the team came back from a 1-0 deficit to draw 1-1 thanks to an Alberto Gilardino goal.
On Sunday night, Jovetic's performance in Inter's 0-0 draw against Juventus was one of the best for his new club. Despite Inter failing to grab all three points, they can take solace…
