Inter Milan president Moratti: We wanted Napoli star Lavezzi

Inter Milan president Massimo Moratti admits they're keen on Napoli star Ezequiel Lavezzi.

The Nerazzurri brought in Diego Forlan and Mauro Zarate following the departure of Samuel Eto'o, but only after they failed in a bid for the Napoli forward.

"It's true," Moratti told the Corriere dello Sport. "I did talk to Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis, who is a dear friend, about Lavezzi.

"He has great talent and an excellent change of pace, but the player is very attached to Napoli."
