Inter’s Saphir Taïder has arrived in Algeria for the friendly against Samir Handanovic’s Slovenia. In the interview, he talked about his situation at Inter and whether it might affect his participation in this summer’s World Cup:

“It’s a strange time. This is the first time this season I have been left on the bench in a few games without playing. It’s a situation that I have to accept, this is the price you pay when you play in the big European clubs. Yeah, it bothers me because you want to play 90 minutes in every game when you’re ambitious. Having said that, I don’t feel any pressure, I’m just going to work to regain my spot on the team. The World Cup is at Risk? I’m in Milan to work and make progress. I’m extremely proud to be able to grow in a club like Inter and I’m confident that I’m getting better day by day. Belfodil? We talk regularly. He’s doing well in Livorno. He’s a players who will do well there, I’m sure of it. I hope he succeeds.”
