Steven Zhang was the centre of attention on Friday as Inter’s president visited the Nerazzurri in training at Appiano Gentile.

Zhang gave an emotional address in which he thanked the players for ‘an exceptional journey’, which has taken the club to within touching distance of their first Serie A title for 11 years.

Inter have many issues which need sorting ahead of next season, both sporting and financial, and Zhang is already hard at work after returning to Milan on Wednesday.

The Nerazzurri tweeted a picture of Zhang’s visit to Appiano Gentile earlier, with all eyes on the 29-year-old as he addressed Inter’s players, staff and management.
