Inter, Champions semifinal: who manages a lido, who coaches in Syria, who flew to the USA. What happened to the exes of 2003?

Even if they would like to forget it, the derby in the Champions League semi-final in 2003 is remembered well by Inter fans. Including their goalkeeper at the time, Francesco Toldo who, raised in Milan’s youth sector, came out of that double crossing with a bad knee due to Shevchenko, who – in the action of goal – hit him with studs. It could have been a magical season for the Nerazzurri number one, who had even scored a goal against Juve a few months earlier. Later with Inter he will win everything in Italy and in Europe. He will retire in the summer of 2010, at the age of 38, after the treble with Mourinho. From there he will collaborate on the Inter Campus and Inter Forever projects, then he will become the goalkeeping coach of the Italy U-20 and U21, a role he will hold until 2015. And now? I’m done with football, I dedicate myself to my family – he said – I live in Milan, I’m a father and I manage what sport has given me. In Padua I build houses, with a criterion of respect and sustainability.

Who mayor, who sells motorcycles and who coaches. What happened to the former Milan players of 2003?
