The words of Joao Mario released to Sky Sports are not accidental, where he said he “wanted to change the whistles into applause and has the will to do well.”

The disapproval of the Nerazzurri fans comes after the summer declarations by Joao Mario of resentment towards Inter and the desire to leave the club as soon as possible. Which, with the summer market, never materialised.

Yet now he seems to have changed his mind and does not intend to prove it only in words. According to FcInterNews.it, from sources close to the player and the club, the Portuguese’s positive attitude in training is appreciated by Luciano Spalletti and his staff, as well as his teammates, who are finding a true professional and no longer someone who wants to leave at all costs.

For this reason, the midfielder could soon return to the pitch more frequently, given that Spalletti tried to defend him publicly by removing – even before they arrived – media allegations that questioned the actual motivation of his failure to call him up against Sassuolo on the first matchday of the season.

As happened with Andrea Ranocchia, the former Sporting player could be regenerated by Spalletti’s care and relaunched as a luxury reserve player that, when called up, can give a solid and useful contribution to the team.
