Inter Milan have appointed former Roma boss Claudio Ranieri as their new manager,
according to reports.
The ANSA news agency reported on Wednesday night that the 59-year-old is set to pen a two-year contract at the San Siro following the dismissal of Gian Piero Gasperini.
Gasperini was only appointed to the role in July and was sacked after a poor start to the new campaign which included four defeats in five games.
Inter president Massimo Moratti questioned Gasperini's management quality after Tuesday's 3-1 Serie A defeat at Novara and the club eventually decided to act by axing the former Genoa boss.
A statement on Gasperini's dismissal from Inter read: "Inter announces that today's [Wednesday] training session has been carried out by Daniele Bernazzani and Giuseppe Baresi.
"The club wishes to thank Gian Piero Gasperini for the effort shown during his tenure and manifests its true disappointment for the interruption of the relationship with the coach."
Ranieri could take over training at Inter as early as Thursday morning, according to Sky Sports News. He has been without a job since being sacked by Roma last February.
Among the high profile jobs Ranieri has held include stints at Juventus and English side Chelsea.
