Cristian Chivu aims to lead Inter Milan to the Serie A title this season, just as Massimiliano Allegri did at Juventus in 2015/16.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 45-year-old is looking to emulate the AC Milan coach’s feat from a decade ago.

Cristian Chivu has endured a mixed start to life at San Siro.

Indeed, Inter have already lost three Serie A matches this season, winning the other five.

Despite a 62.5% win ratio, Inter remain firmly in contention for the Scudetto, trailing pacesetters Napoli by only three points.

Inter Milan Boss Cristian Chivu Aiming to Replicate Max Allegri Feat

Massimiliano Allegri is the only manager in modern Serie A history to win the title after losing three times in the first eight rounds.

Indeed, his Juventus side won the Scudetto in 2015/16 despite collecting just eight points from the opening eight rounds.

Interestingly, Inter have already amassed seven more points than the Bianconeri in their trophy-winning campaign.

However, Chivu must help Inter find their footing in high-stakes games.

For context, the San Siro giants have earned only 24 points from their last 19 high-profile matches.
