Milan: Italian Stefano Pioli has been appointed coach of Inter Milan, the Serie A club announced on Tuesday.

The 51-year-old replaces Dutchman Frank De Boer, who was sacked a week ago following a 1-0 defeat at Sampdoria, Inter's fifth loss in 11 outings.

Inter, taken over in June by new Chinese owners, are struggling this season and are sitting ninth in Serie A and last in their Europa League group.
