Season

In the summer of 1993, Inter acquired Dutch men Dennis Bergkamp and Wim Jonk, already spotted in the previous winter.[2][3][4] Gianluca Festa, Massimo Paganin and Francesco Dell'Anno signed for Inter, too.[5]

Inter recorded slightly better results in the UEFA Cup rather than in Serie A.[6] Rubén Sosa was - once again - vital for the club, scoring 16 goals including a hat-trick in the win over Parma (3–2).[7] When the league stopped for Christmas holidays, the gap from Milan was still recoverable: 20 points to 24.[8][9] However, in early February, after a 1–2 loss against Lazio the club sacked Osvaldo Bagnoli replacing him with Giampiero Marini.[10] The former midfielder managed to reach the UEFA Cup final, defeating - between March and April - Borussia Dortmund and Cagliari.[11] Inter won the first leg, beating - with a goal from Berti - Austrian club Casino Salzburg.[12] Inter finished the league with only 31 points, just avoiding relegation: 13th place was the worst result for Inter in modern Serie A.[13][8] However, Inter was successful in Europe, winning the UEFA Cup after a 1–0 win in the second leg: Jonk was the only scorer.[14]
