Inter chief executive Alessandro Antonello was in attendance at last night’s Christmas party for the Nerazzurri youth teams and addressed all of those in attendance.

“In wearing the Nerazzurri colours you are ambassadors for the club and it is therefore important that you continue your journey by facing challenges both on the field and in life in the right way, strengthened by the training you are receiving from one of the most internationally recognised clubs. Merry Christmas to all of you and best wishes,” Antonello explained.

In an interview with Inter’s in-house channel Inter TV, Antonello added: “Always try to honour the shirt you wear, always respect your opponents and referees. We must be a club that sets an example and the example must start from you lot, who are the future of the club.”

Around 800 kids currently within the club’s youth ranks were in attendance at the party which was held at ‘The Mall’.
