Italian pundit Luigi Garlando believes that Inter are the best placed club to challenge Juventus for the scudetto this coming season.
“There is no opponent of the Old Lady who has strengthened more on the market than Inter, who previously sought goals almost exclusively from Icardi. They have revived their midfield with Nainggolan’s offensive talent. Maurito’s loneliness up top has also been healed by the best summer surprise in the young Lautaro Martinez, who arrived as a spare option to hatch for the future and instead is a star-studded player ready to score. The experience and the quality of de Vrij has further strengthened a defence that remains one of the main strengths of the team,” Garlando said in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.
“A year ago Spalletti started from scratch and took half a season to find the right principles of the game. The breakthrough came as Brozovic moved back in the midfield. A year later the Nerazzurri have a strong tactical identity. The manager has full control of his creature and the full trust of the companies, as evidenced by the fresh renewal until 2021 which increases the serenity of work and promises the future
