Former Inter striker David Suazo has implied that he would not have moved to AC Milan prior to his transfer to Inter seeing as he had given his word to Inter.
Suazo joined Inter in the Summer of 2007 from Cagliari but there was great confusion around his move at the time with AC Milan announcing that they had signed him despite Cagliari’s president Massimo Cellino claiming Inter had made a great signing in Suazo earlier on.
“For me the move to Inter was a consecration after what I had done. I went to Inter because they were the first to be interested in me, when you know that the manager wants you, everything is easier,” Suazo explained in an interview with Honduran newspaper La Prensa.
He went on to add: “The story about Milan wanting me came out but it did not depend on me. I don’t know how the film would have ended had they actually come in for me but I had given my word to Inter.”
The Honduran spent four years as an Inter player but did spent 18 months of his time with the club out on loan. He firstly spent a season on loan at Benfica and spent the final six months of the 2009/10 season on loan at Genoa. He was released by the club in 2011 and joined Catania on a free transfer.
In his time with Inter, the now 41-year-old, who started his career with Olimpia in Honduras, made 41 appearances across all competitions. The 57 time Honduran national team representative scored eight goals and also provided a total of four assists for his Nerazzurri teammates.
