Official- Rafa Benitez sacked by Inter Milan

It is now official- Inter Milan have sacked manager Rafa Benitez after just six months with the Spaniard. Benitez, who recently guided Inter to the Club World Cup in Dubai, had outraged Inter president Massimo Moratti by publicly asking the board for its backing and funding for new players.

Under Benitez, Inter have struggled to reproduce the form that saw them stroll to the Scudetto last year under Jose Mourinho, although their cause has not been helped by injuries to key players. The Nerazzurri are currently thirteen points behind leaders AC Milan.

Moratti also told Italian news agency ANSA that the split had become inevitable.
