Inter Milan GM Marotta: Zhang still in charge here

Inter Milan GM Beppe Marotta says planning is underway for next season with club president Steven Zhang.

Marotta is confident Zhang and Suning will remain in charge next season.

He said at a function to mark their Scudetto triumph: "The 90 minutes played in the derby were full of tension and emotion until the last second. Then the match ended and we became Italian champions, with the second star. Something extraordinary.

"The praise is gratifying for everyone, we must recognise the important role of the coach and the team. They had a strong club behind them, there are no victories without all this. I am proud to represent a winning model like ours.

"We want to continue the evolutionary process. There is no discussion about Simone Inzaghi and we will sit down, on the indication of President Zhang, to extend the contract. We will not make revolutions, we will always think about the sustainability objective, trying to achieve other goals.

"The cycle has not really begun, we had already won some trophies. There is room for improvement and we want to remain protagonists as in recent years."
