With only nine games left to play, and Lazio also standing between them and the Champions League places, the Rossoneri needed a win. Milan are reported by Corriere della Sera to expect a loss of about €90m (£78.5m) on this season’s accounts. Inter have not conceded a league goal in five games – their longest such run in more than a decade. A return to the Champions League might make retaining him more straightforward, and a good many other things besides. The derby will always be The Derby, but these supporters still crave a little bit of something different on Wednesday nights.
