Inter Milan is an Italian association football club based in Milan, Lombardy. The club was formed on 9 March 1908 to allow the foreign playes to play in Italy.^[1] Inter played its first competitive match on 10 January 1910 against their cross-town rivals Milan, in which they lose 3–2. The club won its very first title in 1910 – the 1909–10 Italian Football Championship.^[2] Since then, the club has won further 17 league titles, along with seven Coppa Italias and five Supercoppa Italianas. They have also been crowned champions of Europe on three occasions by winning two European Cups back-to-back in 1964 and 1965 and then another in 2010. The club experienced the most successful period in their history from, 2006 to 2010, where the club won five successive league titles, equalling the all-time record,^[3] by adding three Italian Cups, three Italian Supercups, one UEFA Champions League and one FIFA Club World Cup. During the 2009–10, Inter become the first Italian team to win the Treble and only the second team to win five trophies in a calendaric year, in 2010.

Since playing their first competitive match, more than 900 players have appeared in competitive first-team matches for the club, some of whom have played at least 100 matches (including substitute appearances). Ronaldo, who than was signed by Inter for a then world record fee of $27 million, fell one short of 100 appearances for Inter Milan, due to various injuries during his Inter Milan career.^[4] Maurizio Ganz and Mateo Kovačić played 98 matches in all competitions for Inter Milan.
