Inter chief executive Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Marotta has confirmed that the club have listened to want-away winger Ivan Perisic but there are several things that need taken into account.

“We have listened to the desire of the player but we must also take into account any clubs that are interested in him and take into account the his value that represents his time at Inter,” he said in an interview with Radio Rai Sport before going on to reveal Inter are watching various players.

“There are many players that Inter are observing however talking about them now is premature. We are focused on the current moment of the season as there is still a lot of time before the Summer transfer market.”

Next he spoke on Inter’s Coppa Italia quarter-final match-up with Lazio tomorrow night.

“It is absolutely an important match for us. The Coppa Italia is a beautiful and fascinating tournament. We would like to make something of it this year but first we have to overcome Lazio who are a strong team.

He concluded the interview by reflecting on his brief time at Inter so far.

“Inter has a very strong brand and are an elite level team in Italy, Europe and the world. Inter have had to undergo changes in ownership in the past few years which certainly did not help the growth of the club so it is normal that there are some difficulties but all together we are focused to ensure that these difficulties are eliminated as soon as possible.”
