Cristian Chivu appears ready to lead Inter Milan into a new attacking era, moving beyond the team’s reliance on an iconic partnership.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews , Chivu wants to reduce Inter’s dependence on Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram.

Thuram and Lautaro had been the backbone of Nerazzurri’s success during the Simone Inzaghi era.

Indeed, they were the cornerstone of the 2023/24 Scudetto and last season’s busted treble dream.

Cristian Chivu Eager to Make Inter Milan Less Dependent on Thu-La Partnership

Despite an injury-hit season, Marcus Thuram remains an invaluable first-team asset.

Needless to say, Lautaro Martinez has already reached a legendary status among the San Siro faithful.

However, Inter cannot afford to rely on two players to shoulder the goalscoring burden.

Therefore, Chivu plans on giving Francesco Pio Esposito a chance to prove his worth at the senior level.

After a sterling breakout season at Spezia, the 20-year-old looks ready to shine on the grandest stage.

Then, there’s Ange-Yoan Bonny.

Inter spent a month chasing his signature, convinced that the ex-Parma striker could add quality to their frontline.
