Inter Milan has formalized the renewal of its partnership with Hisense, the aircraft and electronics giant. The three-year agreement extended until the 2027-28 season, confirming a collaboration initiated in 2022. According to Giorgio Ricci, Inter’s Chief Revenue Officer, this extension demonstrates the success of this collaboration and reinforces Hisense’s presence in the world of football. The partnership includes various actions, including the visibility of Hisense brand on the San Siro LED panels, a digital presence on the club’s official channels, the use of Hisense products in the host areas and the creation of visual content celebrating this partnership. Although the financial benefit of this operation is not disclosed, it is presented as a strong and mutually beneficial partnership for Inter Milan.

Regarding the team composition for the next match against Sassuolo, coach Cristian Chivu chose to give Spanish goaltender Josep Martinez his chance. This decision, reported by Sky Sport, replaces Yann Sommer, who had previously made a good performance against the Ajax after a tough match against the Juventus. Chivu foresees several changes from his last composition, with Martinez as his first intention. Other adjustments are also planned, including a rest for Alessaandro Bastoni and the entry into play of Manuel Akanji, Francesco Acerbì and Carlos Augusto in defence. Denzel Dumfries and Fede Rico Dimarco will occupy the corridors, while the midfielder will consist of Nicolo Barella, Petar Sucic and Hakan Calhanoglu.

Chivu’s decision to titularize Martinez is part of a continuation of his initial strategy, despite the initial doubts following the defeat against the Ajax. The coach chose to maintain his confidence in Martinez, especially after Sommer’s criticism of his lack of intervention in the match against the Juventus. Chivu did not want to yield to the pressure of fans and the media and preferred a decision based on his assessment of the situation. This upcoming title against Sassuolo in San Siro represents a new opportunity for Martinez to demonstrate his qualities and consolidate his place in the team.
