Inter legend Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Bergomi has admitted to being unsure what kind of shape the Inter players will return in and how they will do if the football season is to resume.
Football has now been on hold for over a month due to the ongoing global Coronavirus pandemic and the aim for teams to return from training beginning May 4 with a view to then starting to play against the end of the month if not the start of the following month.
“The boys will have been standing still for two months, they have only worked at home. It is difficult to understand how they will return because they will have little time to prepare,” he remarked in an interview with Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia earlier on today.
The former defender, who spent his entire playing career for Inter and was the all-time record appearance holder until Javier Zanetti surpassed him, then went on to discuss Lautaro Martinez, who continues to be linked with a move away from Inter to Barcelona.
“I would always keep him, I think he is growing and has the best years of his career ahead of him. If he was to leave, I would like Inter to go in for Timo Werner.”
As part of the interview the former Italian national team player also spoke briefly on the Milan derby: “The derby was the game that I suffered most for but the one I liked to play the most.”
