Cristian Chivu remains calm despite the delays in the transfer market. Inter is still looking for a starting right winger and at least one central defender, gaps that the Nerazzurri management hopes to fill quickly. The Romanian coach, however, shows no signs of tension.

According to Corriere dello Sport, the goal this year is to consolidate the strength of a group that has come together again, also thanks to the coach’s contribution. The focus is mainly on training, now in full swing, while attention to the transfer market remains high but without frenzy. Chivu and the management had hoped to be further along in defining the squad, but the coach is constantly updated by the transfer team and is fully aligned with them.

In the season-opening press conference, Marotta made explicit the guidelines that Chivu had already embraced, aware that the strategy could go through difficult moments. As a true Inter fan, the Romanian felt more regret for the media treatment the club has received in recent days than for the negative outcome of certain deals.

Recent events have not diminished the ambition to continue fighting to win in Italy and progress in Europe. The hope is that exceptions to the rule may arise again, like the one that Palestra would have represented.
