Since 1908, Internazionale by choice

Inter was born from a choice. The signatures of the 44 founders forever defined the identity of the Nerazzurri, creating a club distinguished by the values of inclusion and respect. On the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, Inter extended its founding act to everyone who wants to reaffirm the choice to be open to the world, placing their signature alongside that document from March 9, 1908, together with many other Inter fans. In the pre-match build-up of the home fixture against Atalanta on March 14, fans arriving at the Meazza were invited to add their names to a panel reproducing the document that gave life to Inter and opened the doors of football to everyone.

Alongside them, President and CEO Giuseppe Marotta, club executives, head coach Chivu, and players from the Nerazzurri men’s and women’s first teams also added their signatures to the installation. The physical installation at San Siro was then moved to the BPER Training Centre.

Male and female players also feature in a true video manifesto of the values that have guided everyone who has worn Inter’s colours for over 118 years. Captains Lautaro and Csiszár explain how the Club’s name remains a symbol of inclusion and openness to the world, alongside Çalhanoğlu, Darmian, De Vrij, Esposito, Luis Henrique, Sučić, Thuram, Glionna, Magull, and Rúnarsdóttir.

This campaign was created to highlight the importance of combating all forms of racial discrimination and promoting the role of sport in developing every individual’s talent. Values that are reaffirmed and put into practice every day by everyone at the Club. The Club is involved in several social responsibility projects focused on inclusion, engaging thousands of young people each year, from local schools to initiatives around the world, starting with the athletes of Inter’s youth sector.
