Nicola Savino talked about his relationship with Inter during an appearance on Gian Luca Rossi’s YouTube channel. The well-known host touched on several topics, from the birth of his Nerazzurri faith to the players who won him over.

The origins of his passion for the Nerazzurri colors go back to his childhood: “Why did I become an Inter fan? Because a classmate in elementary school, Nicola, supported Inter. I was in first or second grade, and I was convinced that all Nicolas had to support Inter. It was a coincidence, but maybe also because my two sisters had a hint of Milanism, so to go against them I chose the other team from Milan.”

On the winning cycle of recent years, his judgment is positive: “3 league titles in 5 years? Very good in these years. Does someone want to win the Champions League? With the Premier League, they are unmeasurable powers, you can’t compare a Serie A team to a Premier League team or PSG. Beyond the smirks of non-Inter fans, not only 3 league titles but also 2 Champions League finals. If Inter wins the Coppa Italia, it’s a little cup, if others win it…”

On the management model of the ownership, Savino expressed his opinion after a direct experience: “Oaktree? I did a corporate convention with them, Inter had to say some things. If I can say my piece, as long as the results are like this, it’s a virtuous example, an example to follow. The fan would like a president like Moratti or Berlusconi who puts his hand in his pocket, but that’s not the reality, a business model like that is unthinkable, Inter stands on its feet with this model.”

Finally, the host revealed which player impressed him the most: “Which player drove you the craziest? I really like Barella, because he is authentic in the way he plays, almost childlike. When they don’t pass him the ball, he huffs and waves his arms, I like that stuff, I go crazy, because it seems like he’s still playing on the pitch in Cagliari. It reminds me of when I put on my headphones in the radio studio at 10 in the morning and I still feel 16.”

On his dream signing, Savino concluded with a cryptic reference: “Forbidden dream? I had one. Gym. I had started liking posts, I trust the president, he’s used to having lavish dinners with dried figs.”
