«Congratulations to the players and thank you, not only because you won but for your behavior on the field which has always been in line with the values of the city – the words of Giuseppe Sala -. Your name is Internazionale and Milan wants to be above all an open, modern, international city. Suffice it to say that 21 percent of residents in Milan are not Italian by origin.” Sala then turned to coach Simone Inzaghi: «As mayor, I identify with him a little because doing this job means having to manage criticism, but if you are motivated the results come. I then thank all the staff for all the work done and a special thanks to Lautaro for being so Milanese. He came from afar but now with his family he feels so happy in Milan. Let’s also remember that 20 is not a point of arrival, but my hope and that of many Milanese people is to win the 21st scudetto soon.” The mayor specified that if the second star arrives for Milan before the end of his mandate, in three years, the Rossoneri will also be given the same recognition.
«We must thank all the staff members, figures who are not in the spotlight but who contributed to supporting the team on the pitch in reaching this goal. Our task is to convey the values of the team, such as the strong sense of belonging.” commented Marotta.
«Thank you, on behalf of the entire team, to the city of Milan and to our wonderful fans because we know that without them this journey would not have been accomplished with as much confidence», added Simone Inzaghi.
«It is an honor to receive this award, thanks to the mayor, to all the people of Milan, to our fans, to our teammates and to all those who work together with us. We did something very important, I am very proud of this award. We must continue on this path and take Inter as high as possible”, concluded the captain Lautaro Martinez.
