Inter, Conte discusses Ibrahimovic rumours

Inter, Conte discusses Ibrahimovic rumours

Speaking at his press conference ahead of Inter Milan's match against Sassuolo tomorrow, Inter head coach Antonio Conte spoke on several issues:

'​I am calm because the team has worked very well, with great commitment, desire and determination. When you see these things you must be peaceful, then you can win a game or not, but the important thing is that there is a great desire to do so and I see this every day. When you work in this climate and with this predisposition, you must consider yourself satisfied.

'Sanchez injury? ​There was a lot of regret on everyone's part because we are talking about a guy we had recovered and who was beginning to give us important contributions from all points of view; technical, quality and experience. He came here with a great desire to question himself and for this I am also sorry for him. He had worked hard to become the Sanchez we knew and when he came to harvest the fruit, this injury arrived. Sorry for him and for us.

'Ibrahimovic? ​Talking about other players today would be a great lack of respect for my players, for what they are giving me in these months. I don't think it's right to talk about Ibra, despite the enormous respect I have for him. He is an extraordinary guy, I have great respect for Ibra, he will remain in the history of football, but I also have confidence and respect in my players and sometimes we are exposed to more stimuli and opportunities to improve even more and make them even more united. We must exploit this.'
