Inter Milan chief Ausilio: Losing Skriniar a big blow

  /  autty

Inter Milan chief Piero Ausilio admits Milan Skriniar's departure will be a blow.

The defender will join PSG at the end of the season.

Ausilio said, “Skriniar has taken this decision, but we have also signed many players as free agents.

“Losing him was not good because we wanted to continue with him. I am sure he has made his assessment, but I believe there are opportunities in the market with young players who will make us competitive. Inter will always play to win.

“Sustainability is crucial. Like other clubs, we must respect FFP rules.

“We are aware that these rules prevent us from doing what we'd want to do, which is buy the best players in the world. There are many things we must take into account, like many other clubs.

“We can't build teams as they do in England where even teams that are smaller, on paper, spent almost €100m in January. We can't do that, which doesn't mean we can't build a competitive team. We have ideas, we have a great scouting department and a great youth sector, which offers resources such as Federico Dimarco.

“We can improve in all aspects, but it's not necessary to spend €200m to build a strong team. We can't afford this in Italy, the same is true of other clubs; we'll try to remain competitive with our ideas and resources."
