## Season

Inter could line-up notable attacking players, such as the new Fanna in add to Altobelli and Rummenigge. Despite his good performances in Europe the Italian league was disappointed, forcing the club to replace Castagner with Mario Corso.

The coach, renamed God's left foot, was not able to get more a sixth position but reached the semi-finals of UEFA Cup, being defeated by Real Madrid for the second time in row. The side could take part to European cups for 1986–87 season only thank to the fact that Roma won Coppa Italia, leaving a spot for UEFA Cup.
