Season overview
Inter were confined in the market to only a few purchases, as they were not yet ready for a deeper revolution: the most notable arrival being Rodrigo Palacio, from Genoa.[1] For the first three months of 2012–13 season Inter achieved good results, especially in away games.[2][3] However, during winter times, the side suffered from too many absences: Diego Milito and Javier Zanetti - for example - had long-term injuries.[4][5][6][7] As a result, Inter had to use young players who did not have the required experience and skills.[8] It was Inter's worst season since 1993–94, finishing ninth in the league and missing out on European football.[9] On 24 May 2013, Stramaccioni was sacked by the club, with successful former Napoli coach Walter Mazzarri taking over the next day.[10]
