Inter Milan midfielder Mateo Kovacic is happy playing for coach Roberto Mancini.

The Croatia international is convinced of a big second-half of the season.

"Mancini wants consistent high pressing. We can really grow and develop with him. I expect good results from 2015 and hopefully in the Europa League too.

"Would I sign a lifetime contract with Inter? That's a loaded question and I prefer not to talk about my future too much. I can say we are close to a renewal, but I am also still very young."
