Legendary Inter goalkeeper Ivano Bordon has shared his hopes to see current Inter goalkeeper Samir Handanovic pick up some silverware shortly.
Handanovic has been ever reliable for Inter since his arrival at the club in the Summer of 2013 from fellow Serie A side Udinese but has yet to pick up any sort of silverware.
The 35-year-old shot-stopper was named club captain little over a year ago after Mauro Icardi was stripped of the captaincy and has kept 114 clean sheets in 324 appearances for the club.
“I hope he is able to win some trophies soon. I think he is a lot like me. He is calm, he does not get upset,” 1982 World Cup winner Bordon told Turin newspaper Tuttosport.
He also discussed what kind of player he thinks Inter should be looking to bring in next season to act as his deputy.
“I am old school and I think the goalkeeper must be old school too. The goalkeeper is a particular role, the mental aspect of it is very important.”
He also spoke on the current gap between current Italian reigning champions Juventus and Inter and what he thinks Inter need to close the gap with their arch rivals.
“I think there is only a little gap between the sides and that with a few reinforcements Inter could reach the level of Juventus.”
Bordon started his professional career with Inter in 1970 and would spend 13 years with the club before leaving to join Sampdoria.
Bordon made 381 appearances across all competitions during his time with Inter which also he won four trophies in. Between 1999 and 2001 he also served as Inter’s goalkeeping coach.
