FootballFormer Inter Stars, to Be Present at the Champions League Final
- Inter qualified for their first final in 13 years after thumping rivals Milan
- Inter will face Man City who defeated Real Madrid 4-0
- The duo played a part in the Nerazzurri’s recent Scudetto success
Former Inter pair, Achraf Hakimi and Ivan Perisic, were both present for the Champions League semi-final win over Milan and reportedly will attend the final in Istanbul next month.
The duo played a part in the Nerazzurri’s most recent Scudetto success under Antonio Conte, with the former leaving after that season and the latter departing a year later on a free transfer.
Inter fans were happy to see Hakimi and Perisic in the stands of the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. The pair greeted each other with a smile and embraced before watching the match and celebrating the victory.
As reported by La Repubblica, both Hakimi and Perisic will attend the Champions League final between Inter and Manchester City at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium.
Both players continue to hold the team dear despite their recent departures.
Perisic's possible Inter return
In recent months, rumours have suggested that Perisic is interested in returning to the Nerazzurri, unhappy with Tottenham following the departure of Antonio Conte.
Accordingly, Tuttosport reports, Perisic is keen to return to Inter and has made his desire known to the Nerazzurri.
The departure of Antonio Conte in March, the man who brought Perisic to both Tottenham and Inter, has only increased the likelihood that the 34-year-old won’t be playing for Spurs next season.
Hakimi on the other hand has also been linked to a move back to Real Madrid.
According to French outlet L’equipe, the Moroccan defender would fancy a move back to the Santiago Bernabeu.
Inter thrive as UCL underdogs
Earlier Sports Brief reported that Inter are dreaming of a UCL triumph after upsetting the odds to reach this season's final, securing their place in Istanbul on June 10 with a deserved semi-final win over city rivals AC Milan.

FootballReaching the final seemed improbable just a few weeks ago after Inter narrowly edged out Porto in the last 16.
They then beat Benfica 5-3 on aggregate in the quarter-finals, but a 1-0 home league defeat by Monza.
The Nerazzurri’s will hope luck swings their way when they face Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City in Istanbul.
