Saturday 11-10-2025
The Italian Filippo Inzaghi, head coach of Palermo, confirmed that he is not currently considering a coaching experience in the Saudi league, while also expressing his great admiration for his brother Simone Inzaghi's step in leading Al Hilal.

Filippo explained in statements to the Italian newspaper "Repubblica" that he is in constant communication with his brother to exchange technical ideas, emphasizing that their relationship is based on professional respect and sharing experiences in the coaching world.

He added that both of them share a similar vision in dealing with football, which is based on passion, discipline, and continuous work, praising Simone's courage in taking on a new challenge outside of Europe in one of the strongest emerging leagues globally.

Filippo pointed out that exposure to different competitions provides coaches with extensive experience and professional development, considering that his brother's decision to move to Saudi Arabia came at the right time after achieving notable successes in Europe.

The Palermo coach described his brother as one of the most prominent Italian coaches at present, after he managed to lead Inter Milan to the UEFA Champions League final twice in three years, which confirms his status among the elite coaches.

Filippo concluded his statements by affirming that he currently prefers stability with his current club and not moving between teams, while expressing confidence that Simone will achieve great successes with Al Hilal, especially after leading the team to the quarter-finals of the FIFA Club World Cup in a historic achievement.
