Inter CEO Beppe Marotta is ‘optimistic’ about talks to extend the contract of defender Milan Skriniar. The 27-year-old was once again key to the Nerazzurri, playing a vital role in their 1-0 victory over Napoli. Speaking after the game, Marotta was asked about the players expiring contract and gave an update to broadcaster DAZN (via SempreInter)
“As far as Skriniar, there are dynamics that are typical in the world of football, other teams are also in these kinds of negotiations.
Milan deserves to be here in the present, and for the future, we’ve given him our offer and we hope that we can conclude negotiations soon.
I’m always optimistic in life, though in this case we also have to be realistic, we can do a lot, but not the impossible.
January transfer market? In football the market synonymous with creativity, but these considerations are more for the summer transfer window.
In January we go into the market mainly to patch the squad up, there aren’t always opportunities to sign players up to the level of the squad.
“The players we have we are completely happy with, they deserve total respect.”
