Marotta explained that Inter Milan had represented Italy in various competitions, playing 63 games, which is more than some of their competitors. He emphasized that the team's current performance was a reflection of their condition at the end of the season, rather than their usual level.
Marotta also took the opportunity to thank Simone Inzaghi and his staff for their efforts in the season, as well as Cristian Chivu for the valuable experience he brought to the team. He mentioned that the team had been able to evaluate several young players and that it was essential to recharge their batteries before the new season in July.
Marotta acknowledged that the upcoming season would be long and challenging, ending with the World Cup, and that some players would need to maintain a high level of performance throughout the season.
When asked about captain Lautaro Martinez's comments about his teammates after the match, Marotta interpreted them in a positive way, suggesting that Lautaro was referring to the importance of players being committed to the team. Marotta also mentioned that Lautaro might have been referring to Hakan Calhanoglu's situation, who has been discussing a potential move to Galatasaray this summer.
Marotta emphasized that the club would address any issues, including Calhanoglu's situation, in a calm and lucid manner, and that the team's spirit and unity were essential for their success.
