A series of meetings are lined up with potential Inter Coaches, including Stefano Pioli and ex-Villarreal boss Marcelino.

Frank de Boer was sacked this morning, but there is no replacement lined up yet, so Primavera youth team manager Stefano Vecchi will be in charge for Thursday’s Europa League trip to Southampton and the Serie A match with Crotone on Sunday.

Pioli flew back early from a vacation, fuelling reports he is to meet with Chinese owners Suning when they arrive in Milan on Friday.

Frank de Boer was sacked this morning, but there is no replacement lined up yet, so Primavera youth team manager Stefano Vecchi will be in charge for Thursday’s Europa League trip to Southampton and the Serie A match with Crotone on Sunday.

Pioli flew back early from a vacation, fuelling reports he is to meet with Chinese owners Suning when they arrive in Milan on Friday.

Sky Sport Italia are also now suggesting that a meeting has been set up with former Villarreal tactician Marcelino for the end of this week.

The 51-year-old has been out of contract since August and has only ever worked in Spain.

Multiple reports claim there is a definite split within the club over which direction to go in next.

President Erick Thohir and CEO Michael Bolingbroke had been staunch defenders of De Boer, publicly declaring he would not be sacked just four days ago.

Director Piero Ausilio is pushing for ex-Lazio Coach Pioli, while Suning want a higher-profile foreign manager.

Agent Kia Joorabchian, who works closely with Inter, is encouraging them to go for Vitor Pereira.

Those who have been at the club for a long time would prefer Andrea Mandorlini, who is a former Inter player and therefore knows the environment well already.

There is a break for international duty coming up, so after this weekend Inter will have more time to consider their next move.

It doesn’t seem as if there will be an announcement of the new Coach for at least five days.
