Lele Oriali has added his voice to the chorus of Inter officials thanking Lugano for their hospitality during preseason training.

The Nerazzurri are preparing for the new Serie A campaign in the Swiss city and will play Lugano in their first friendly on Sunday.

Antonio Conte’s side will then fly to Asia for their summer tour on Tuesday, where Manchester United, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain await.

“We’re very happy to be here,” Oriali said at a sponsors event yesterday.

“It’s been a lovely experience which I believe we could repeat in the future, because you have everything here to work seriously and prepare for the season.

“I hope we get the chance to come back in future years.”

Oriali returned to Inter last month when the club appointed him as their first team technical manager, although he will combine the role with his duties for the Italian national team until the end of Euro 2020.
