Sandro Mazzola has shared his views on the progress Inter have made as both a team and as a club in recent months.

“I like that Inter is growing, there is great enthusiasm in the environment and that’s what has been needed for many years. Antonio Conte is a great leader and will do well in his new role,” he told newsnotizie.it.

He also shared his views on new signings Nicolo Barella and Stefano Sensi: “They are two excellent players, I have always appreciated them and they are perfect for the coach’s system.”

He did not allow himself to get carried away when thinking of Inter possibly winning the title adding: “It’s better not to talk about it now, but Inter will surely give a tough match to a very strong Juventus.”

He concluded the interview by discussing Inter’s pursuit of new players for the attack.

“Romelu Lukaku and Edin Dzeko are two world class strikers but I would always choose Mauro Icardi over them.

“Icardi is an incredible footballer and I am sorry to see that he is on the market.”
