Nerazzurri sporting director Piero Ausilio spoke to Inter Channel following the 1-0 home win over Genoa:
“We should have been out of sight by half time. We played very well, attacking and pressing them, taking them on in one-versus-one situations like the coach asked. We need to be more clinical in front of goal, otherwise we could give ourselves a problem. Perin is a top goalkeeper and he made a great save from Ljajic but their job is to keep the ball out.”
Miranda and Murillo are proving to be two of the season’s best signings: “We started with the defence and discussed which signings to make with the manager. We actually tried to bring Murillo to the club back in January. Everyone now knows all about him, whereas Miranda needs no introduction. It’s hard to find the words to do him justice.”
Ok there Fassone…….Mancini tells management what he wants, you become Mancini’s clerk and bend backwards to do what you are told and now you want to take the credit ? you should thank Thohir for splashing the money for a competent coach that makes his sporting director look good. Even Branca can put a treble winner together when he;’s got Mourinho pulling the strings to tell him who to get.
We have to loan out gnoukouri and rey manaj. Sell 5 out of 8 of the following or loan out, Nagatomo($4 million La liga and premier league target),d’ambrosio(3.5 million possible place in premier league),Santon($6 million has been linked with premier league), brozovic(he is still on loan so it remains to be seen what will happen but we have set a 15$ million price tag and arsenal have short listed the player), guarin(he is worth roughly 11 million with juventus looking to be interested in the player), Icardi(50 Million and he is yours premier league) Juan Jesus ($10 – $16 million, has been linked with napoli and roma in the past and could be sold for extra funds) and ranocchia ($10-$13 million. Possible move to serie a or premier league). I feel Vidic will not stay and we could try to sell him to rid of his contract but I do not know if there is any word of inter thinking to get rid of him. I think the same for palacio as well so potentially the sale or loan out of 5or6/10 of those names would be great. Montoya is on a two year loan with a mandatory option to buy based upon appearances. So if anyone is wondering why he gets no play, it means mancini really does not like what he sees and does not want to risk wasting money on a surplus player. If we terminate the loan that gives us another free squad spot. We also are looking forward to the money from sunderland for alvarez so it would be great to get the 10.5 million from that before end of january.
With the sale of players and roster spots open. We can now see maybe where inter is going to get the idea of only looking for players who support the team and also players who “have experience in Serie A” and finally who is looking to get some playing time or possibly join a team that is challenging for a championship. I know these are mostly rumors but it makes sense when you think about the players we have been linked with. Coming in for January I feel we will have maybe 4 or 5 of these names coming in.
Alex Pato – He has scored 19 goals for sao paolo over the course of last 2 seasons. He would be a solid option as he is 26 and is not as injury prone as in the past. He also will come for revenge against milan for selling him. so he is a good buy especially if we can get him for the reported 8.5 million he is worth.
Jonathan Calleri – He has been doing well for boca and he is one of the names that has been constantly linked with Inter. The only problem is Chelsea are standing in our way of making the player ours. He may sign for them instead but he and his father have expressed they “like Inter” a few times. Would be interesting to see what happens.
Jacopo Sala – We have been constantly linked with the player and he is perfect pedigree for a backup midfielder or possible right back. Also adds another “italian player roster spot” to our squad(for those who do not know we need to have a minimum of 3 italian born players in our roster. (berni,ranocchia,d’ambrosio and santon). If 2 or 3 of those are sold we will need italians to fill the spots. He seems to be a solid option.
Antonio Candreva – I do not think this man needs an introduction. He is a great player and could add alot of great ability and skill to the squad. Lazio is doing terrible and I feel lazio president will sell him maybe for around 15 million. It may rise to 20 million but if we can pay in increments I would not disagree with that amount. He is also another Italian player option if we need to fill the void
Gregory Van Der Wiel – He is a solid rb and the only reason he does not play as often is because serge aurier is a beast of a right back. He has a contract that expires in the summer if he does not sign with psg but I feel he will not sign due to lack of playing time and wanting to be able to playing in the next euro cup for netherlands. The only stepping stone is his agent is the same agent for pogba lol So seeing how juventus wants him they have the ball in their court if he refuses to sign for psg further.
Ben Arfa – He played in premier league most his career and france. He is a good dribbler and a real temperamental player at times but there is no denying his skill. He would be a good signing if we can get him for cheap but only as a last resort option I feel he is not as good as other players who may be available.
Ezekiel Lavezzi – He is an amazing talent and may have 2 or 3 more good years in his legs. He may be wanting a return to serie a especially after he expressed “missing it” recently. We would be able to get him for a cheap fee or hopefully auslio can work out a loan until end of season and then we buy him free next year (dreaming of that happening lol). He has tons of serie a experience as well
Dries Merteens – The napoli man is a quite pacey and skilled winger/attacking midfielder. He can add alot of playmaking to the attack and pace and also is good with both feet. He also has the serie a experience we are looking for
Davy Klaassen – He is a dutch creative midfielder playing for Ajax. Cost roughly around 8 million but could be seen as an alternative if we were to lose guarin or brozovic. He is only 22 but we could have the ability i feel to get him on loan with option to buy with ausilio magic.
Bruno Peres – He is not linked with us officially but I feel we will be stupid not to try to get him. He is a great wing back and could be perfect for when mancini wants to do 3 cb defence. He is linked heavy with roma but it is apparent Torino is looking to cash in on the player they bought only for 2.2 million 2 years ago. I feel we could buy him for around 8 million and it would be ten times better than montoya.
Adrien Rabiot – The article says everything but he is a decent midfielder and could be a great gamble for us. He would help Kdog settle I feel and bring a spark to the midfield if we lose a few players beforehand of course.
With the possible sale of Icardi – He has been linked to Liverpool and Arsenal. Ausilio has stated he would not accept an offer of 35 million euros (which is roughly 24.5 million pounds) I feel the english can raise their offer to 50 million euros (33-35 million pounds) easily. So this being said. We could bring in a big name player.
Eden Hazard – Has been heavily linked with a move away from chelsea and there is no denying that he is extremely skilled. I feel if we sell icardi, this is the most expensive replacement
Alexandre Lacazette – Amazing pace and ability at the striker posistion. A real poacher and good playermaker at times. He could be bought I feel for around 30 million euros.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – He is the top goal scorer in bundesliga and one of the best strikers around right now. We would of signed him I feel a few years ago if we had not been in an economical crisis. We can get him for around 40 Million euros.
The sale of icardi in winter is very unlikely unless we get a huge money offer I do not think he will leave. Apart from that we should be able to sign majority of these players with the funds from players “guarinteed” to be leaving our team this winter and alvarez money which is going to play a big factor in our Winter window. Sunderland do have to pay but it just depends on when now. Either way I know Ausilio is going to be busy again and will be on his A game. Especially with the team doing so well already we have alot of great talking points to bring to the table when discussing with possible future players.
Definitely Murillo + Miranda our best signings this season, however kondo + Perisic does not seems to fit our team at least until now.
I Know people will hate me but Shaq had a great game that allow his team to beat Manch City the past weekend – I think that we are requiring a player like him, to create chances, specially if we reach CL.

And Ljajic as well
guys pls if we decide to put money on a plate for ljajic when its loan with right of redemption, can roma do some issues that they wont let him if we dont offer more money at the end of a season or they just change their mind and simply dont let him go ? can they do it?
I don’t think they can change their minds,we allready got a deal with them it is just a matter of us paying the aranged sum of money if we feel Ljaic is good enough (which i think he has allready proven and his buy out fee ain’t big)
The sum we need to pay to redeem him already stated in contract. The option is upto us instead of them.
By the way, they give us Llajic as compensation for Salah in my opinion.
But we are not satisfied yet,you should have brought allan and kick rano and guaro……..
Man,ausilo is just a human,if he did that he must be some kind of god,LMAO….
agree with you mate.. sometimes it’s easy to talk than to do.. ^^
Bologna 3-0 Napoli in 65th minute. HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Nice game destro and bolognaaa. Keep it up!!
Hahahaha..
I was annoyed when they celebrated their winning last week,i mean,WTF the league still has many matches to go why celebrate it like you have won something,i didnt know they havent been capolista for many many years,
Now i am wondering how do they feel for just a week as a leader,it must be hurt,and to make it worse it was bologna who destroy them,Lolllll….
And thanks to destro, well hes not forget where he came afterall 🙂
Well they were on top for the first time in the last 25 years so I can understand them being happy. But yeah, their morale must be a bit crushed after this.
i wonder that baldie vice manager of napoli still yapping around about dinner for winner and blabla stuff. i would like to humbly said to him : “WHO’S THE BIATCH NOW?” :))
Let’s make this december be nicer guys,after unlucky lost we need to gear up.
I expected Miranda to step up and lead our deffence,but Murillo is apsolutly signing of the season imo…Young,fast,great positioning i think we got our selfs a great deffender for the next 10 years 😀
Amen to that, I hope those filthy rich them wouldn’t lay a hand on our Murillo.
i haven’t seen a better center back-pairing since samuel and lucio – at atleast they’re comparable. i am really excited about this team, and i think mancini have done a great job thus far.
murillo suprised me this season, murillo no doubt about his quality
By far our best Mercato for years, no doubt about that… Awesome job Ausilio, just keep it up!
