Piero Ausilio leaves Inter Milan after 28 years
Piero Ausilio has departed Inter Milan after a 28-year tenure, ending an era for the club. The separation follows a failure to reach an agreement regarding his contract renewal. Reports indicate that while Ausilio sought a multi-year extension with a salary increase of approximately 300,000 euros, the club—under the ownership of Oaktree—offered only a one-year extension with a 100,000 euro raise.
Ausilio, who rose from the youth sector to become a key sporting director, was instrumental in securing multiple Scudetti, Coppa Italia, and Supercoppa titles. His departure has been described by former president Massimo Moratti as the loss of a vital part of the club’s identity.
Dario Baccin, a long-time collaborator of Ausilio, has been promoted to Chief Sport Officer to ensure continuity in the club’s sporting strategy. The transition was marked by an emotional farewell at the Appiano Gentile training center, attended by club officials and players.
