Inter's condolences following the passing of Ilario Castagner

The football world is mourning the passing of Ilario Castagner. First a player and then a coach, he led Inter for just over a season after being appointed by Ernesto Pellegrini in 1984. In 1984/85, under Castagner’s stewardship and with the likes of Karl-Heinze Rummenigge, Liam Brady and Alessandro Altobelli in the Nerazzurri ranks, Inter finished third and reached the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia and UEFA Cup. The following campaign saw Castagner take charge of a further 19 matches. In total, the coach from Vittorio Veneto was in the Nerazzurri dugout for 70 games.

FC Internazionale Milano, Club President Steven Zhang, Vice President Javier Zanetti, CEOs Alessandro Antonello and Giuseppe Marotta, Coach Simone Inzaghi and his staff, the players and the entire Inter family join in mourning the passing of Ilario Castagner and offer their deepest condolences to his family.
