Fiorentina striker Christian Kouame has revealed he has no regrets about not securing a permanent move to Inter a few years ago whilst at Serie D/E outfit AC Prato.
The highly rated Ivorian forward, who moved to his current employers in the most recent January transfer window, joined Inter on a six month loan deal between the start and middle of 2016 but Kouame never ended up joining the Nerazzurri on a permanent basis at the end of the loan deal and instead ended up at Serie B side Cittadella.
“Before I moved to Cittadella I waited for a call from Inter but Prato had already given the floor to the Cittadella. I have no regrets. I am here and I am happy,” the 22-year-old remarked in an interview with Milan based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.
Kouame then refused to rule out the possibility of Inter getting back into the Serie A title race if the season is to resume despite them having to claw back a nine point deficit in their final 13 games.
“Who will win the Scudetto? Juve and Lazio will contend for it until the end. Even Inter is not yet cut off. If we return to play it will be an anomalous ending.”
This season Kouame has made just 12 appearances across all competitions to date due to injury. In just under 1000 minutes, he has scored five goals and tallied three assists.
