Mateo Kovacic has been speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport after Croatia’s 2-0 defeat against Norway in Oslo. The former Inter number 10 did not play due to suspension but did speak about his Summer move from the Nerazzurri to Real Madrid.
“Real Madrid is one of the few teams in the world who you can’t say no to. In the end they found a solution that made all parties happy. Every player dreams of playing for Real. It has happened to me at 21 years old, I feel very fortunate.”
“Did I persuade Real in the friendly in China? I do not think a club like this buys players based on a single performance and I know it will be tough to win a place in the team but I’m sure I will make it.”
“I was sorry to leave Milan regardless. It all happened so fast. Even if it takes time to put together many good players, I’m sure Inter will have a great season.”
“I hope to see Inter in the Champions League in twelve months time. At the beginning of the season everyone is optimistic and the new signings will justify the enthusiasm of the Inter fans.”
“The Champions League is great and is a long road away but I hope with all my might that Inter make it. I really wanted to play in the Derby but I’m sure Inter will win.”
“Jovetic? I was not surprised by his start to the season, I know he is a great player who can make the difference at any moment.”

False, Javier Zanetti rejected Real and stay with Inter. He can say no.
there is no ffp that time.
However, there was passion THAT time.
Real Madrid from that time didn’t had the money of this RM and we where a club who could pay huge wages.
Okay, but What about Icardi? he rejected them, no? 🙂
And it was hard to see you go. 🙁
next year if we get to CL, we will need dept in our squad.. so we will loan him with the option to buy( ausillio way of mercato). we sell him for 35-40m, and we will get him for just 10-15m.. that’s a good deal.. ^^
Come on bro.
The only position he is able to play in, is “soft CM”. First we have enough CMs, and then we won’t any soft player.
i don’t think it’s bad to have some dept and more option with different type of player.. but still we will see how gnou develove though.. ^^
No one can deny that he loves inter, hope he returns one day better than ever
You be good over there kiddo, and hopefully you’ll comeback to us stronger and better in a short distance future!
Dont worry boy,you will be back soon or late
i know he’ll be back to inter, and many inter legend come from Real Madrid cambiasso
well said kova.. good luck in madrid.. ^^
I expect following: 1. Inter is back in UCL and compete for scudetto. 2. Real sells Kovacic to Inter with 15m euros after 2 seasons. 3. Kovacic becomes our new # 10 after gaining so much experience in La Liga and does so well just like Cambiasso.
I hope your prediction is exact.
x2
Its very possible that he could leave in a couple of seasons ..
Man if this gets right I will find you and kiss you.
what a great deal by inter. without selling him we couldn’t buy a squad like this imo. win win for all three parties.
