Former Inter striker Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has claimed that even AC Milan do not know how they won the 2021/22 Serie A title.
Speaking at the Trento Sports Festival which was organised by La Gazzetta dello Sport (via Milan News), the German former striker suggested that Stefano Pioli’s Scudetto winners were not exactly a classic example of champions.
It is true that the title win came sooner in Milan’s project than expected, but Rummenigge seems to think even less of the team that beat his former side, Inter, to the title.
“It was a great team. The only thing I haven’t understood to this day is that we didn’t win a Scudetto at that time. In 1984 the team was well put together in defence, midfield and attack,” Rummenigge said.
“Then in a certain period we let ourselves get a bit and lost precious points, a bit like what happened two years ago to Inter when Milan won the championship, and they don’t know how they managed to win it until today either.”
Rummenigge played for Inter between 1984 and 1987 but he is mostly known for his time at Bayern Munich, both as a player between 1974 and 1984 and then as the vice president and Chairman of the Executive Board of the Bundesliga side.
He failed to win any trophies with the Nerazzurri but he was very successful with Bayern and West Germany.
