Inter Milan president Thohir insists no Moratti feud

Inter Milan president Erick Thohir insists there's no feud with Massimo Moratti.

Former Inter owner Moratti took issue with comments from Thohir last week.

"I spoke to Mr Moratti about everything. I talked to him [Sunday] morning, when I landed in London," explained Thohir to reporters yesterday evening, upon arriving in Italy.

"What I believe the misunderstanding comes from is that I never said anything about the club being unhealthy.

"What I said is that we need to be healthier - which is also what Mr. Moratti has said too - by creating more revenue. Because when you talk about, for example, the English Premier League, the three newly promoted clubs can reach revenues of £110m. And this is for the bottom three clubs.

"And so how do we compete? Of course we need to create more revenue. So this is what Moratti and I have spoken about."
