Massimo Moratti
Massimo Moratti relied on Luigi Simoni as coach and on Ronaldo as star. Further purchases resulted in Diego Simeone, Francesco Moriero and Álvaro Recoba who – in his debut – scored twice, helping Inter beat Brescia in a 2–1 comeback. Compared to the previous seasons, it proved to be better for Inter who mounted their first serious shot at the title since 1989.
