Inter Milan 2026 contracts and Perth pre‑season

Entities: Cristian Chivu · Inter Milan · FC Internazionale Milano · Ruben Amorim · Franco Baresi

Overview

In late July 2026 Inter Milan secured its core by extending German centre‑back Yann Bisseck’s contract to 30 June 2031, pushing back the 2029 expiry. Bisseck, a key figure in Inter’s recent league titles and cup double, made his Germany debut in March 2025.

The pre‑season friendly in Perth on 5 August ended in a 1‑1 draw with AC Milan. Inter took the lead through Federico Dimarco after a Federico Lavelli pass; Milan equalised via Christopher Nkunku’s penalty. Both clubs observed a minute’s silence for Franco Baresi. Inter coach Cristian Chivu stressed player development over the result, while Milan manager Rubén Amorim highlighted Luka Modrić’s influence and tactical fine‑tuning.

A day later, Juventus and Inter were confirmed to meet in a second Perth friendly on 8 August 2026 at 13:00 CET (19:00 local). The match will be broadcast live on DAZN, Sky Sport, Arena Sport 2 and streamed on Juventus.com. Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti spoke of squad rotation and praised recent signings after Dusan Vlahovic’s departure, noting the new players are expected to boost goal output. Inter’s Cristian Chivu reiterated the importance of physical readiness and tactical fine‑tuning. Line‑up hints suggest an 18‑year‑old debut for Kerim Alajbegović, with expected starters including Di Gregorio, Kalulu, Bremer, Koopmeiners, Cambiaso, Locatelli, Douglas Luiz, McKennie, Conceição and David. Large crowds attended Juventus’s open‑training session, adding a festive atmosphere ahead of the televised clash, which follows Juventus’s win over Chelsea and Inter’s draw with Milan.
