Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio commented during the transfer market opening ceremony in Rimini. Speaking to the media present, including Tuttomercatoweb, he stated: "The market is not over yet, we are on June 29th, there is too much of a rush, too much media attention around the Inter market. Not long ago, we won the Scudetto and an Italian Cup, it seems that everything good we did was consumed quickly. The market lasts two months and during that time we will do everything we need to improve the team without any problems".
"In football, these dynamics are normal, there are several, but this one had a great repercussion due to its media coverage. We never hid, we made a good proposal, an important proposal that the ownership made available. I believe there is nothing to blame because we did everything possible. If a club appears and proposes to the player what was proposed, it is legitimate for him to choose another path. I consider Inter's technical project, from my point of view, absolutely valid, but I repeat, they had every right to choose another and that's fair. We'll do something too, there's no problem."
"We will play a right winger, a right winger, whatever we want to call it, nowadays so many definitions are used. The fact that Dumfries leaves is a certain thing, we will not let ourselves be caught off guard, we are working on some situations, there are many interesting players and one of them, certainly by the end of August, will be part of Inter.
"I'm dealing with the renewals of players or coaches, my renewal I think, if there is interest, is up to others to deal with. I am always available, as I have been all these years, but my renewal should not be my responsibility, it is the responsibility of others".
"About Nico Paz, I also read a lot of things and heard a lot of things, not just in the press. We never did anything with Nico Paz, simply because we are working on other types of positions, there are other needs, other priorities, especially that of the central defender.
"Solet, like many other players, could be an opportunity, but it is not the only one and I am not sure that he is the choice, we will see calmly what this market will bring, but without rushing and we are ready to start a championship with the team we have, with the players we have, and we have the desire to add something".
"There are many names, sometimes I also read them, and they are not necessarily the ideas we have in mind. We are talking about important players, all of them, because they are all players. If we talk about Chalobah at this moment in the World Cup, as he correctly said about Solet, but there are many others, I repeat, we are evaluating with the coach everything that the market offers and we will not let ourselves be caught off guard".
"In addition to the enormous esteem I have for this boy, I can calmly say, without the risk of being denied, that there is no interest, but for a function reason, not because I have no esteem or consideration for this boy, who is one of the best young people we have in Italy and will certainly do a lot of good. However, in the next few days, we are working on other things, not this type of role."
"We'll do two, we'll do two."
"I never denied the interest in this boy, until January we tried, but I must be equally honest: we like him, he is a player who has characteristics that can bring something more to our midfield, which is already very strong, but at the moment there is a significant gap between the evaluations we give and those that Liverpool give. As he is a Liverpool player, he has every right to ask for what he asks for and it is legitimate, but we have the right to say whether it suits us or not, so at the moment I would say it is an operation very difficult.
