Gds interview translated by FedeNerazzurra
"About Lukaku's interview, I can say that everyone is free to say what they want and every word has its consequences. For us, yesterday is the past, tomorrow is the future. The present is the only thing that matters. What counts today is Inter."
"Two clubs made important offers to me but I waited until the last minute for Inter. I then lowered my salary because playing for this club was my priority. My dream is to end my career here."
Interviewer: D'Ambrosio, ownerships, directors, players, all have come and gone but you are always here, how do you do it? DD: "My affection for the shirt, it comes either naturally or from playing. Also I have always been a serious professional."
DD: "Expectation for 2022? Growth. We are not satisfied even if confirming ourselves (as champions) is more and more difficult. You can amaze once but to do it again you need something more."
DD: "Many expected the worst for us looking at past summer. But in the dressing room, we were much calmer compared to those who were watching from the outside. New coach came to give new ideas without destroying the foundation built last year. The work has been great so far."
DD: "Our style of playing has changed. We are more free tactically and we are allowed to make different choices than those that we tried in training, but only result helps you to play with a smile."
DD: "Ranocchia, Handa and I, we've been through dark times. We appreciate things more now 'cause we have lived through certain experiences. I saw fans leaving San S. in protest, now I hear SS chanting my name. Started like that & got to where we're now, it's twice the happiness."
DD: "Hakimi and Dumfries, both had a hard time at the beginning but they are different and the way Inter are playing now is different. Their growth, however, is very similar."
DD: "Would I bring Lukaku back? It's a question for Marotta and Ausilio. It's not a topic of conversation between us players."
