Inter sports director Piero Ausilio spoke with Umbria Radio after the Festival del calcio event being held in Perugia:

On the takeover…

“Suning? I’m still waiting for news myself. It is something which came up to us quite fast, since everyone was still speaking about minor shares, now in one week everything seems to have changed and there might be a complete takeover. We still have to wait.”

The upcoming mercato…

“I think that the FPF must still be observed even if Suning should buy Inter. Inter must mantain its word with UEFA.”

Yaya Toure latest…

“I declined yesterday’s news of Toure’s medical visits because it is not true. I didn’t feel it was right to let the news go by without denying it. Toure’ is a big player, Mancini likes him and every football fan loves to see Toure’ playing. But to say that he is already an Inter player is quite different. It’s very difficult to sign Toure’ because Yaya is still under contract with City, one of the richest clubs in the world. It is not easy to get him.”

Kovacic potential Italy return to rivals…

“Mateo to Milan or Juve? I would be sad to see him with another jersey in Italy because I’m still close to Kovacic. We bought when he still a kid, we played him, he grew and we sold him at a very important price to Real. Now I hope he can stay at Madrid and grow in a team that has just won the Champions League. It is true that he didn’t play that much, but you need some time to settle and cement your place in the starting line up. Mateo, is still very young, he has already played a high number of competitive games in Serie A and La Liga: so if he is patient, he can become a very important player for Real. A possible return? If he returns to Italy, I sincerely hope he does not go to Milan or Juve. At Inter? We’re always interested in players like Kovacic, but at the moment we can’t say anything.”

Future of Zebli…  

“I’m very happy for the boy, because he is a good example of how growth can happen in various methods. We thought that a move to Perugia would be good for him. In the begining we thought he would be a primavera players but in time he managed to establish himself in the first team and we’re happy. We still controlling the player’s future with Perugia, having set a gentlemen’s agreement with the club.”

Manaj to Perugia…

“I have a good relationship with Perugia’s directors, so they know that Inter is available should they need any of our players. For Manaj and other young players, we will do something, we’ll see if they’re useful for Perugia.”

If Inter can attract stars…

“I don’t know if great players can come to Serie A. I don’t know Ibra’s figures as wages, but we can’t even think of signing such players. Then, I don’t know if other clubs can sign him. We have a good squad, our forward is Mauro Icardi and we have a series of other good offensive players. We should build and concentrate on what we have already.”

Meeting with Mancini…

“He’s enthusiastic, I met him a couple of days ago and we spoke about next season. We’re totally concentrated to do what’s best for Inter.”
