One of them was Leo Messi, that from does a lot is being related with the Italians. The rosarino has doubts on his future and says that the interistas could be behind him. The ex maximum mandator of the team of Milan confirmed these rumours.

"I imagine that the Inter already has tried to go to by him. I have seen that announcement of Suning with the silhouette of the Argentinian in the Duomo and this does me think that already it took an initiative. And if it is not like this, I think that they go it to do prompt", commented, leaving fall that already there are movements or that there will be them in brief. Nevertheless, Moratti has doubts on the feasibility of the operation by the will of the captain blaugrana, since it doubts of his intentions.

I do not have it so clear", commented the Italian. These doubts are more than reasonable, since the '10' is the greater legend of the history of the Barcelona and for him does not go to be easy to say goodbye to which is his house. In the club think that goes to remain , but only the time will say if it finish accepting follow.

Besides, it praised to Lautaro Martínez, that is the big aim of the Barça to reinforce his forward this summer. "The Argentinian has an incredible potential, is a talent. Now it is showing things very good, but goes to explode even more", affirmed. Besides, it left clear that does not finish to see an alike barter to the that he same negotiated does years when Zlatan Ibrahimovic went to the Barcelona and Samuel Eto'or landed in Milan.

"Well, Etoo did not have 33 years. This yes, the Uruguayan is very good. It is smart and very strong technically. But that barter was favourable under any point of view. We separated us of an exceptional player as it was and is Ibrahimovic, but the operation had some fantastic terms for the Inter. It depends on how it would substitute to Lautaro would be good option", said, in reference to what would give the culés by him.

Moratti Would leave to work to Conte in the Inter

Finally, it spoke of the continuity of Antonio Conte, that left in the air his future as 'neroazzurro' after losing the Europe League against the Seville. "In these cases, everything depends on his relation with the president, but can not argue his capacities. It did it very well in this season, arrived to very good results", signalled, hinting that if it was by him would keep on being trainer of the Inter the course that comes.
