Italian football agent Dario Canovi feels that Inter Milan have entered the Scudetti mix on the back of their impressive run.

The Nerazzurri began their campaign with a smashing 5-0 victory over Torino, but then suffered back-to-back defeats at the hands of Udinese and Juventus.

These setbacks raised major doubts over Inter’s ability to compete for top honours this season, including the Serie A title.

Nevertheless, Cristian Chivu’s men have now bounced back with seven straight wins across all competitions. The San Siro outfit won four Serie A contests on the trot, with the latest coming at the expense of AS Roma. Moreover, they currently enjoy a perfect record in the Champions League after prevailing in their first three group-stage contests.

Therefore, Inter’s odds of winning a trophy at the end of the season have noticeably soared in recent weeks. This is portrayed by the odds of some the most trusted bookmakers online, including the ones based on cryptocurrency.

With Inter now closing in on the top spot, Canovi believes that they must now be mentioned in the Scudetto discussion.

The agent had initially identified Napoli and AC Milan as the favourites. However, he’s currently envisioning a three-horse race that also features the other San Siro outfit.

“I was convinced it was a battle between Milan and Napoli, but now I have to include Inter,” said Canovi in his interview with Tutto Mercato Web via FcInterNews.

Dario Canovi Insists Inter Milan Haven’t Changed Since Cristian Chivu Replaced Simone Inzaghi

The pundit also insisted that Chivu has changed very little in the team he inherited from Simone Inzaghi last summer.

“It seems to me the team plays exactly the same as under Inzaghi. I read in the papers that the game plan has changed, as well as the mentality. However, I’d like to understand how exactly.

“The lineup is more or less the same, with Bonny or Pio Esposito coming on every now and then.”

But despite the thrilling competition for top places, Canovi blasted the lack of quality in the Italian top flight.

“We’re playing fifth-tier football. It’s unwatchable. We haven’t had a single good match this weekend.

“Milan play on the counterattack, and don’t let me get started on Juventus. I’m old enough to have witnessed the rise of catenaccio.”
