More than half an hour later, the Nerazzurri team bus has covered just over two hundred meters of the eight-kilometre route that will take Lautaro and his teammates to Piazza della Duomo, with the convoy potentially delaying its arrival to the centre. Cheers and smoke bombs surrounded the passage of the two Inter buses, while the players and technical staff were standing at the barrier. Among the most brutal were Barella, Demarco and Dumfries but also Farris, Inzaghi's deputy.
Inter's championship parade has begun. The two open buses (the first with the team and the second with the staff) had just left San Siro, where they were welcomed outside the Meazza garage by thousands of cheering fans who opened their doors and allowed the Inter convoy to pass between the two fan wings.
The first to board the bus were Arnautovic, Calhanoglu and Pavard, followed little by little by the rest of the team, including coach Simone Inzaghi. Music blared live from the bus's speakers, while flags with two stars also appeared on the sides and the words “Italian Champions” and “The second star is ours, thank you Inter fans” could be read on both buses! There was also no shortage of the first cheers from the loudspeaker, as the footballers (Demarco and Barella were among the first to take the microphone) sang “League leaders leave” and “We are the champions of Italy” between a few beers and a glass of wine.

Moreover, after the Italian League anthem, tricolor confetti exploded on the sidelines of the match, and everyone chanted “We are Italian champions.”

Marotta: We want to continue the cycle with Inzaghi
“We started the cycle with Inzaghi a few years ago and he passed the test: in a big club you have to prove it with facts. He showed that he is good and successful, you can't get better than that. He's young.” Ambitiously, we want to continue living this cycle, which will end sooner or later, but we are not even halfway there,” Inter CEO Giuseppe Marotta said in an interview with DAZN before the match against Torino. “Renewal of Lautaro and another great striker? Next year there will be a challenging season with the Club World Cup as well, the team must be supported as best as possible but we must also deal with sustainability: we will try to create a creative transfer market.”
