Joaquin Correa Reunites With Simone Inzaghi
Joaquin Correa has followed former boss Simone Inzaghi from Lazio to Inter Milan. The winger joined Lazio in 2018 during Inzaghi’s tenure. Correa quickly established himself in the Lazio first team and was an integral part of the squad that won the 2018/19 Copa Italia.
The versatile attacker has been one of Lazio’s key players over the past three seasons. During this period, he has made 117 appearances and scored 30 goals.
A Journey From Estudiantes to Inter Milan

After a slow start, Correa established himself in Sampdoria. The attacker’s impressive display saw Sevilla sign the attacker in 2016. The Argentine spent two seasons in Spain before returning to Italy, joining Lazio in 2018. Correa spent three years in Rome before moving to Milan this summer.
What Was Said?
Speaking to the club website following his transfer, Joaquin Corre said: “I’m proud and at the same time, it’s a huge responsibility. I really wanted to join Inter and I can’t wait to show what I can do and help the team. I was here as a youngster. When I came through the gate again today, those moments went rushing through my head. There are so many emotions involved. I’m older and more mature now. I want to improve every day. Thank you for all the messages that you’ve sent. I can’t wait to get out on to the pitch and show what I can do.”
