Marotta tells players not to worry about contract extension, focus on final stage of season

In the 28th round of Serie A this season, Inter Milan played against Fiorentina at home. Inter Milan CEO Marotta accepted an interview before the game.


Marotta said that many of their players have national team tasks, which is a kind of pressure for them, including games and long-distance travel. The squad only reunited on Friday, so the coach's squad selection also took into account the players' travel miles for the international break.


For Skriniar who will leave freely this summer, Bastoni and Onana's contract renewal negotiations have not progressed. Marotta said that when players want to stay in the team, everything will become easier. He told the players to focus on the final stage of the season, not to worry about the renewal issue, they are all focused on next month.


Marotta also said that Lukaku's love for Inter Milan is fully devoted. The players will return to Chelsea at the end of their loan and they will be able to assess their prospects together afterwards. The performance of the players is satisfactory and supports the ambition of the team.


Regarding whether he was surprised by the termination of the contract between Conte and Tottenham, Marotta said that it was a surprise to a certain extent, but he did not know the reasons for this situation, so he was not qualified to give opinions.


In the end, Inter Milan lost to Fiorentina 0-1 at home . Inter Milan has lost 10 games in Serie A so far this season, and only lost 4 league games last season.


According to statistics, the last time Inter Milan lost double digits in Serie A in a single season was the 2016-17 season.

The last time Inter Milan lost 10 games after the first 28 rounds of the season was in the 2011-12 season, when Inter Milan lost 11 games in the first 28 rounds of the season.
