F.C. Internazionale Milano returned to the top echelon of the domestic scene, finishing second to city rivals A.C. Milan in the championship. The relatively narrow four-points margin between the two sides, was explained by Milan drawing several matches when it had already clinched the title, so the end result was a lot closer than it was during the course of the season.
Following the indifferent 1991-92 season, Inter sold all of its three German internationals Andreas Brehme, Lothar Matthäus and Jürgen Klinsmann back to Bundesliga. That enabled Inter to purchase several foreign players, and especially playmaker Igor Shalimov and topscorer Rubén Sosa proved vital in Inter's resurgence. Strikers Darko Pančev and Salvatore Schillaci struggled to live up to expectations, which made Sosa's 20 league goals vital.
