Steven Zhang has shared his thoughts on Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Marotta’s appointment at Inter as joint chief executive of the club alongside Alessandro Antonello.

“This is an important change for the club in line with our objective of becoming a winning football club and a successful company. As Inter, we want to win, entertain, inspire and connect people through football. Beppe is one of the best executives in the football industry and will help us to achieve our goals,” the club president remarked in an interview with Inter’s official website.

Zhang, who was made club president just months ago, then went on to clarify the exact role that Antonello will serve now Marotta has taken over the sporting matters that the chief executive role concerns.

“Off of the pitch Alessandro will ensure the enhancement of our off-pitch performance, the successful completion of the Club’s strategic projects, and the promotion of our values inside the organisation.”
