Interesting comments from Stefano Pioli before Sunday’s match at Udinese in which the Inter boss said that “it’s normal” that Inter fans can expect signings this month as he and the club’s owners “are on the same page”.

Inter are tipped to be among the busiest Italian clubs in the January window, with Suning Group now settled into their ownership of the Nerazzurri, and Pioli is happy with how their relationship is developing.

“We’ve worked well in Spain,” he told Premium Sport ahead of Sunday’s game against Udinese in Serie A.

“We’re returning to play after a long break. Udinese have only lost to Napoli at home of late, so we’ll have to suffer, give our best and fight for every ball to win.

“There are always risks after a break, so we have to give everything on the pitch.

“The meeting in Nanjing [China] with the owners? It was good, we’re improving our knowledge of one another, our relationship…

“Our communication is quicker and, along with sporting director, we also talked about the January market.

“Icardi said he was convinced that he could win cups and titles with Inter? Yes.

“The owners are very ambitious and want to do very well, they have great potential and came here with [Icardi’s] objective.

“They’re giving us great support and backing, we all feel very close and very strong now and Inter want to do well.

“The club and I are on the same page regarding players going out. As far as the market goes, we’re just at the start and we’ll try to develop it in the direction we want.

“Can I expect some presents? It’s normal that we can incorporate another player and we hope he arrives.”

By all accounts the deal for Roberto Gagliardini is all but complete and the only decision on Wolfsburg left-back Ricardo Rodriguez is whether he joins this month or in the summer.

The focus on Ausilio and Suning this month has to be to clear out a top heavy and bloated first team squad. Felipe Melo is the first one to leave and the likes of Joveitc, Palacio, Nagatomo and Stanton should not be far behind them.
