According to SportWeek, former AC Milan defender Alessandro Costacurta believes that Inter Milan, coached by Simone Inzaghi, has the potential to compete in the Champions League and, with a bit of luck, could reach the final.

Costacurta stated in an interview: "I will keep a close eye on Inter Milan because they might go further than other teams. Their signings have been very good, and they are fully capable of competing with the strongest teams. A few weeks ago, I would have said there were six or seven teams stronger than them, but now there may be fewer, because Palacios and Taremi are very good signings. Inter Milan is a very solid team, difficult to beat, and with a bit of luck, they could reach the final. And of course, there is Como. Como will face difficulties because they have many young players, but they are full of vitality and enthusiasm: I have always believed they could reach the Round of 16."

When discussing favorites to win the Champions League, Costacurta said: "Paris Saint-Germain, even if they lose Barcola, is still the best in Europe. Real Madrid and Barcelona are right behind them because they have great players. Rodri's arrival has made Barcelona even stronger; their style of play sometimes makes the team look a bit vulnerable in defense, but their attack is terrifying. When playing against the Catalan team, the score might be 3-2, 4-3, but most of the time they always manage to score one more goal. Overall, Paris Saint-Germain, the two Spanish teams, one or two English teams, Bayern, and Inter Milan form the strongest group. It's just that Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid, and Barcelona seem a bit stronger to me."

Regarding the role of coaches, Costacurta said: "Real Madrid's strength lies in the individual ability of their players; you just need to place them in the most suitable position. The same applies to Barcelona; as a club, they have a very clear tactical approach: no matter which coach goes there, they know they have to play that way. I'm not saying coaches aren't important—of course they are—but there's no one like Guardiola anymore who completely changed football with his ideas. There are many coaches now, but the teams I mentioned are very good because the players who make them up are very good. The real exception is Paris Saint-Germain. Paris Saint-Germain is a fortunate and special entity: they have a group of great players who know how to help each other."
