New Internazionale coach Antonio Conte has reiterated the club has not met with Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku.
"I think now it's very difficult to talk about this," Conte told the BBC World Service when asked about the transfer market. "For sure, we have a plan to try to improve the team. But it will be very important for the players, it will be very important to have a great will and great ambition - me the players and the club - to try to reduce this gap [with Juventus].
"Have Inter met with Lukaku? No, that's not right, but in this moment there is a sporting director to talk about this and do this question about the transfer market, about the players. But I repeat: Now we are very focused to do the first step and to work together."
When asked about Sanchez, Conte laughed and replied: "Yeah but you're talking about the transfer market, you have to talk to the sporting director about this topic."
