Inter have confirmed that they have parted company with senior squad members Yann Sommer, Francesco Acerbi and Matteo Darmian whose contracts expire today: ‘Thank you for everything’.
Inter say farewell to Sommer and Acerbi
37-year-old goalkeeper Sommer joined Inter in the summer of 2023 and has served as the club’s no.1 for the last three seasons, making 100 Serie A appearances during his time in Italy, 139 across all competitions.
The former Switzerland international won two Serie A titles, a Coppa Italia, a Supercoppa Italiana and reached the 2024-25 Champions League final during his time in San Siro.
Centre-back Acerbi, 38, has been with Inter for one year longer than Sommer, joining in 2022, and made a total of 101 Serie A appearances during his time with the club (148 across all competitions).
His personal Nerazzurri trophy cabinet includes two Serie A titles, two Coppa Italia winners medals, two from the Supercoppa Italiana and two runners-up medals from the Champions League in 2022-23 and 2024-25.
Inter have released long statements thanking both players for their efforts over the years: ‘Thank you for everything’.
It is also the final day in Nerazzurri colours for Darmian, who has spent the last six seasons in San Siro, making 150 Serie A appearances and 218 across all competitions. He ends his time in Milan with three league titles, three domestic cups, three super cups and two runs to the Champions League final.
Stefan De Vrij’s contract with Inter also comes to an end today. The Dutchman had been offered the opportunity to extend his stay, but now looks set to join Panathinaikos in Athens according to the latest updates.
