**Piero Ausilio** was interviewed by *Sky Sport* on the sidelines of an event dedicated to sporting directors, scheduled in Massa. The sporting director answered many **transfer market questions**, focusing on the various open fronts for **Inter**.
First of all, the Nerazzurri executive dwelled on **Ademola Lookman**, confirming that he is Inter’s main target for their attack. However, Ausilio also made it clear that negotiations with **Atalanta** are not simple, specifying what the **club’s strategy** will be.
These were his statements:
**TRANSFER MARKET** – *“Many deals already done? I’m not sure if that was a smart thing to do. There is so much pessimism that it made many forget that Inter have already made some signings. We have bought 3 players and, in addition to redeeming Zalewski, we have Pio Esposito, who will certainly do well in an Inter side that also wants to be younger. Everyone has stayed. Inter are absolutely not weakened; we know how to improve the squad. Everything is agreed with the ownership, Marotta, and the coach. When we start working on the pitch, we’ll immediately make our guys understand what the objectives are, which will never be less than those of previous years.”*
**LOOKMAN** – *“It’s no secret that we’ve made our interest known to Atalanta. We have an excellent relationship of friendship and respect. We’ve spoken, we communicated our expectations. We really like Lookman and we’d like to try to get him, but he is an Atalanta player. We will have to reach an agreement. He is not on the market and, beyond our will and that of the player, we have to understand what Atalanta wants to do. Alternatives? You can’t think of working in just one direction, even if that’s our preferred one. There is work behind this that’s been ongoing for a year; if we are unsuccessful, we’ll move on to the other ideas we have.”*
