Inter, Chivu goes against the trend during the break with work at Appiano

The international break has led top coaches to adopt different strategies. Ruben Amorim and Massimiliano Allegri opted for an unconventional approach, while Cristian Chivu followed the opposite path: for Inter, the pause is not automatically a period of rest, but an opportunity to keep working on the training ground.

The comparison, highlighted in recent hours, underlines the different ways clubs are managing the break. Amorim chose to give his players time off, and Allegri made the same decision despite Napoli’s difficult moment. Chivu, instead, maintained a more demanding schedule in order to work on the team’s mechanisms and make the most of the days without competitive fixtures. It is a choice consistent with the need to give continuity to the Nerazzurri project.

Inter enter the break after a 2-0 victory over Como, following the convincing 3-0 win away to Feyenoord. The next fixture will be on Sunday, November 22, at 20:45, away against Atalanta. After that Serie A match, Chivu’s team will face Stuttgart in the Champions League on November 25 at 21:00 at San Siro.
