INTER MILAN ARE GEARING UP FOR ONE OF THE BIGGEST GAMES IN THEIR RECENT HISTORY AGAINST PSG TONIGHT, BUT THE CLUB HAVE BEEN HIT BY TRAGIC NEWS BEFORE KICK-OFF AFTER THE DEATH OF ERNESTO

PELLEGRINI 12:05, 31 May 2025Updated 12:22, 31 May 2025 Former Inter Milan president Ernesto Pellegrini has died at the age of 84, just hours before the Italian side play PSG in the

Champions League final. Pellegrini owned Inter from 1984 to 1995 and presided over one Serie A win and two UEFA Cup triumphs. Pellegrini first joined the Inter board in 1979 after writing a

letter to chairman Ivanoe Fraizzoli, asking to become involved with the club. He was inducted into Inter's Hall of Fame in 2020 after overseeing a successful period in the club's

8am. The club posted a moving tribute towards their former president on social media and sent condolences to his family. READ MORE: Ousmane Dembele makes feelings on Kylian Mbappe clear
