Inter coach Antonio Conte and the management at the Nerazzurri are satisfied with the arrival of 33-year-old Uruguayan defender Diego Godin, despite his struggles in adapting to Conte’s three-man defence, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.

The report details how Godin initially struggled at Inter after his slight thigh injury that kept him out of the first few games of the season. Furthermore, he has never played in a three-man defence in his career, and so will have to learn to adapt quickly in a new defensive style.

However, despite these struggles, the Nerazzurri and Conte are still incredibly happy with his arrival at the club, the report highlights. The player’s experience and history of winning trophies is invaluable to the club, especially considering the relatively low level of experience within the current squad. His leadership abilities are not something that the Nerazzurri undervalue, the report adds.
