INTER, MAROTTA TAKES STOCK ON THE MARKET. ATALANTA, CDK TOWARDS REDEMPTION. FIORENTINA, THREE GOALS FROM SASSUOLO –
Beppe MarottaCEO of Inter, was interviewed by Sky Sports from terrace 21 in Piazza Duomo. These are his declarations during the Nerazzurri’s Scudetto celebration: “Great emotion, all the essence of Inter is there. These fans represent the city of Milan and for us it is a source of pride. I will never be able to forget this celebration. Sense of belonging ? It is often thought that clubs must be rich and spendthrift, I think that players and coaches must be chosen with a sense of work and culture, humility and ambition to obtain the best. Programming? of the property. Zhang? He is constantly in contact with us, he is seeing everything. Renewals Lautaro, Barella, Inzaghi: which is next? We will analyze calmly, there is no position that causes us anxiety of all the players. We will check all the contracts, we have gathered from everyone the desire to stay. The cycle has not even reached the halfway point, we want to confirm most of the players.”
Perhaps it is still early to be able to undertake certain discussions. However, it is difficult to avoid them when such a player has completely reversed the inertia: the box containing the zero was erased with goals and plays that in the Bergamo area were reminiscent of a Slovenian who passed away not so long ago. But no comparisons, Charles De Ketelaere he managed to bring out his personality in a season in which he was at home Atalanta almost everything seems to work perfectly: 7 goals in the league, 11 in total including cups. Numbers that lead to a practically predictable epilogue.
So will there be a ransom? Barring imponderable variables, yes: the Orobic club will pay the 22 million euros to Milan and will enjoy a player who from the first moments gave the sensation of being a winning bet. In the event of a further flop, the Bergamo players probably would not have exercised the option, but this scenario had no sense in existing right from the first matches: De Ketelaere conquered Bergamo and convinced the Goddess, now we just need to think about the field. And to a season finale that could go down in the history books.
There Florentine, after the elimination from the Italian Cup last Wednesday at the hands of Atalanta, has resumed its journey. Important victory against Sassuolo, where three potential Viola targets play: it is no mystery that the Viola club has at least three black-green players as targets. The first name is that of Andrea Pinamonti, a striker who has scored 11 goals in the league and Italian Cup this season. Fiorentina will look for Nzola’s replacement in the next transfer window, given that the Angolan has never managed to make an impact, and the former Inter player’s name is one of the first on the list. The other two names are those of Armand Lauriente and Domenico Berardiwho despite the injury remains a target of Fiorentina, as he has been for years now.
VASCO DA GAMA, RAMON DIAZ RESIGNS. PORTO CAN SKIP THE RENEWAL OF CONCEICAO –
Ramón Diaz he is no longer the coach of Vasco da Gama. The former Fiorentina, Napoli and Inter player, 64, resigned after the 4-0 defeat at home against Criciuma. In his place, the Brazilian club has promoted coach Rafael Paiva from the Under-20 team, who takes over the management of the first team on an interim basis.
Vasco scored only 3 points in the first 4 days of the Brazilian championship, the result of a victory (on the first day) and three consecutive defeats. The club specified that “immediately after the end of the match against Criciúma, Ramón Díaz and Emiliano Díaz resigned in the locker room. Shortly afterwards, Ramón and Emiliano informed the staff of their decision, making it clear that they would no longer be part of the group. Subsequently, the club councilors present accepted the request and made the news official. Ramon and Emiliano greeted everyone and asked to greet the journalists too.”
Sergio Conceicao can return to the market. A few days ago the coach was confirmed as leader of Porto by the historic president Jorge Pinto da Costa, who had led the club since 1982. Last night, however, Da Costa lost the elections to André Villas-Boas, so now a clause bilateral agreement can cancel the agreement that the parties had signed a few days ago.
At this point Conceiçao can become attractive again for Italian teams. In particular, the Porto coach had been linked to Milan before the announcement of the contract renewal. It remains to be seen whether the agreement will now be ratified after the election of the new president.
Warren Zaire-Emery has extended his contract with Paris Saint-Germain until 30 June 2029. President Nasser Al Khelaifi made the deal official before the match against Le Havre: yesterday the French footballer played his 70th match with the Parisians shirt .
