“They are not worthy!” – Walter Samuel shakes Inter: immediately requested three excluding from the squad

Milano –A news that surprised and inflamed the Nerazzurri fans:Walter Samuel is officially the new deputy coach of Inter, alongside Cristian Chivu in the team’s technical guide for the next season. But what really upset the environment is his first move: according to internal sources, the former Argentine defenderHe asked for the immediate exclusion of three players from the current Inter squad, accompanying the request with a dry and direct comment:
“They are not worthy.”

A return with a strong flavor

For many Interists, Walter Samuel is not just a former player: he is a legend. Defense pillar of the 2010 Triplete, nicknamed “The Wall” for its defensive solidity, Samuel has always represented grit, leadership and professional seriousness. His return, this time on the bench, was welcomed with enthusiasm and also with great curiosity.

His appointment as deputy coach alongside Chivu – another symbolic face of the great Inter – seems the signal of a deep refoundation, which starts not only from the field but also from the mentality.

Three names in the sights

According to what he transpires from sources close to society,Samuel would immediately identify three players who, according to him, do not deserve to wear the Nerazzurri shirt. The names have not yet been officially known, but the Italian sports media advance hypotheses: we speak of elements that have disappointed for attitude, performance or lack of competitive spirit.

One of the most cited candidates is a midfielder purchased with great expectations but never really exploded, while another would be an attacker who showed more discontinuity than talent. The third, according to rumors, would be a central defender who would have broken with the locker room.

Samuel, known for his winning mentality and for the absolute seriousness with which he faces every commitment, would not have used half words:
“If we want to build something serious, these cannot be part of the group. They are not worthy of this shirt.”

A new era “to the South American”?

With two former flags such as Chivu and Samuel at the technical guide, Inter seems to want to resume a winning philosophy, based on discipline, identity and spirit of sacrifice. An approach that is very reminiscent of that of Mourinho’s Inter: compact group, zero alibi and maximum concentration.

“With Samuel in the staff, the tone changes,” he writesLa Gazzetta dello Sport. “It is not one who makes discounts. And if he has already asked for three exclusions, it means that the project is serious.”

The reactions of the fans: enthusiasm and curiosity

On social media, the news quickly made the rounds of the web. The fans have divided between those who are enthusiastic about this new hard line and those who fear that too strong statements can destabilize the locker room.

“Finally someone who says things as they are,” writes a fan on X. “Inter needs men, not just footballers.”
Others, however, ask for caution: “Ok the discipline, but it also serves balance. We do not create internal fractures right now.”

The position of the company

For now, Inter has not officially commented on the declarations attributed to Samuel. However, President Zhang and the management seem to have given white paper to the new technical staff, willing to support a refoundation that reports the Nerazzurri to the top of European football.

“We trust the judgment of those who lived Inter at very high levels,” an internal manager would have said. “If Samuel and Chivu say someone is not suitable, we will listen to them.”

Conclusion: shock or earthquake?

The arrival of Walter Samuel as the deputy coach of Inter has not gone unnoticed. His first words – “are not worthy” – echoes strong as a declaration of war on approximation, superficiality and mediocrity.

Chivu and Samuel do not want to build any team. They want to recreatea winning group, an Inter that does not compromise and that returns to dominate with personality and hunger.

The message is clear: either you are up to it, or you are out.
