Walter Mazzarri sacked as Inter Milan coach with Roberto Mancini offered the chance to return to the San Siro

According to Daily Mail, Inter Milan have sacked head coach Walter

Mazzarri with Roberto Manchini the leading candidate to take over at

the San Siro.

The Serie A giants are languishing in ninth place in the table after a

summer of heavy spending, bringing in Manchester United captain

Nemanja Vidic among others.

Sportsmail understands Mancini has been offered a two-and-a-half-year

deal by Inter, where he would return to a club he won the title in

three consecutive years between 2005 and 2008.

The Italian giants are languishing in ninth in Serie A following just

four victories from 11 games this season.

Mazzarri, who was appointed Inter boss in the summer of 2013, has paid

the price for this sluggish start and was axed on Friday morning with

a 44.64% win rate from his 46 competitive matches in charge.
