Inter Milan-owned striker Dennis Curatolo has been very impressed with Alexis Sanchez, Federico Dimarco, and Hakan Calhanoglu in training.
The 19-year-old gave his thoughts on some senior Nerazzurri player in an interview with Italian news outlet FCInterNews.
Young Inter striker Curatolo is currently on loan with Pro Patria in Serie C.
The 19-year-old had spent the first half of the current season on loan with Fermana. However, he made the switch in the January transfer window in search of more playing time.
Naturally, for a player of Curatolo’s age, playing time is the biggest priority.
That is the reason why the Italian has been out on loan this season. He is looking to find his feet within the senior game after proving himself at youth team level.
But that does not mean that there was not value in having Curatolo work with the senior Inter squad.
Naturally, the teenager was never likely to make much of an impact on the pitch. He did however appear in senior matchday squads for the Nerazzurri last season.
But what was really important for Curatolo was having the chance to train with players of the quality and experience necessary to be a part of Inter’s first team.
And there were a few in particular who impressed the young striker.

In terms of who impressed him most at Inter, Curatolo said, “In my position, Sanchez.”
“It’s crazy,” he said of training alongside the Chilean.
“He’s too good.”
“And the Dimarco and Calhanoglu both have an amazing shot,” the young striker went on.
“In terms of position, I tried to learn something from everyone,” Curatolo said of his experience training with the Inter first team.
“Dzeko, Lukaku, Luataro, Correa.”
“They did things with a simplicity that was incredible,” he said of watching the more senior players.
“It was like unwrapping candy to them.”
