Inter are preparing for Wednesday’s Coppa Italia final against Juventus. CEO Giuseppe Marotta spoke about the upcoming duel: “It’s an important stage for us because we haven’t won this trophy for a long time. The fans, the owner, the players and the front office are all rowing in the same direction. We want to bring it home. Especially because it will be another edition of the Derby d’Italia, which I think is the most important.”
The experienced executive spoke up DAZN: “It’s normal to also think about the Scudetto. We have a lot at stake this week. Achieving these goals would be the reward for our sacrifices throughout the season. Our goal is to win silverware. Inter could reach their first goal with the Coppa Italia on Wednesday and that’s what we’re focusing on at the moment. Then we’ll see where it stands on Thursday. There must be no distractions. It’s nice for an athlete to have that kind of pressure and deal with multiple competitions at the same time.”
Corresponding La Gazzetta dello Sport, President Steven Zhang invited the entire staff to the match. Inter organized a train for 300 people so they could attend the Coppa Italia final. Rumors of Suning selling the team have died down as their commitment has no expiration date. That Nerazzurri haven’t won the domestic cup for 11 years. A triumph could be worth up to 10 million euros. They beat Juventus in the Supercoppa earlier in the season.
