About Inter Milan:

Internazionale is a professional football club based in Milan that was founded in 1908 and is more commonly known as Inter. Inter are bitter rivals with fellow city dwellers AC Milan and the football derbies between these two legendary clubs are always exciting and well fought.

Inter are one of the most successful clubs in Italian footballing history having collected fifteen Scudetti, five Coppa Italia, three UEFA Cups and two European Cups throughout their long and illustrious history. Inter are well known for having never been relegated from the top flight of Italian football in their history. Inter have solidified their position as one of Europe’s leading clubs and are a member of the G-14.

In their early days Inter tasted success quickly lifting their first Scudetto in 1910 just two years after the club’s formation. However, Inter had to wait until the 1938-39 season before they succeeded in securing their first Coppa Italia. Interestingly throughout the fascist period in Italy Inter abandoned the name Internazionale as it was frowned upon and they were instead known as Ambrosiana but they soon returned to their original name in 1942.

Inter excelled in the 1960's winning three League titles and back to back European Cup wins as the club enjoyed their most successful era to date. Inter continued to perform well and added further silverware to their already impressive trophy haul in the 1970's and 1980's.

However, in stark contrast the 1990's brought a period of decline to the club with Inter struggling to achieve even mediocre performances. Inter were languishing while rivals Juventus and AC Milan were taking both Italy and Europe by storm. Despite a poor turn in fortunes Inter still managed to lift three UEFA Cups in 1991, 1994 and 1998.

Inter finally laid these difficult years to rest lifting the Coppa Italia in consecutive years in 2005 and 2006 beating Roma in both finals. In addition to this Inter were awarded the 2005-06 League title after points were deducted from Juventus and AC Milan due to their involvement in a match fixing scandal. Inter firmly established themselves as a force in Italian football that nobody could question when they lifted the League title at the end of the 2006-07 season in their own right.
