“I am very excited to bring a leader of Michael’s expertise and stature to our club,” said Inter President Erick Thohir.
“Michael has my complete faith, trust and confidence. He is the perfect person to execute the vision shared by the Moratti family and myself of Inter as a truly global brand. I look forward to working with him as we build a foundation for future success.”
Bolingbroke will only begin work in August, after the end of his contract with Manchester United, where he was responsible for ticketing, hospitality, operations, property management and corporate services.
He was also on the Board of Manchester United’s joint venture partnership with Nike.
“I’m absolutely delighted to be offered this opportunity. Inter is one of the strongest brands in football with a heritage to match.
“I can’t wait to get started and look forward to working alongside the management team in place.”
