Former Inter, AC Milan, Roma and Real Madrid defender Christian Panucci believes Inter Milan are the favourites for the Serie A title.
Speaking to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, FCInterNews, the former Italy foreigner also shared his opinion on the sale of Andre Onana and the degree of influence Saudi Pro League spending has on football.
In the absence of more than a month, the consultation of the favorites by the name of Serie A is still distant.
Also, none of the groups, in the most sensible, necessarily know what their groups will look like as long as the motion window remains open.
Serie A has had another winner in the last 4 seasons. They are probably already 4 serious candidates, not to mention groups like Roma, Lazio and Atalanta.
However, there are groups with the maximum ambition to win the Scudetto. Inter coach Simone Inzaghi has not hesitated to do so: he needs to fight for the title.
And for his part, Panucci believes that Inter is the right team to win it next season.
Speaking about the upcoming Serie A season, Panucci said: “Inter are still up, they will be the favourites. But Napoli will give up easily. And then let’s see what Juventus and Milan are doing. “
Regarding recent high-profile transfers to the Saudi Pro League, especially Lazio’s Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Panucci said: “I know they have special goals in Saudi Arabia, to add the World Cup. “
Cash is not lacking and the feeling begins to end in the world of fashion.
“Now the god of cash regulates everything,” Panucci said.
“At 28, I probably would have gone there,” the former defender admitted. “I don’t need to be a moralist, but when I turned twenty in Milan, Middlesbrough presented me five times as much as I earned. But I didn’t leave because Milan is the most productive team in the world. “
“Today, we are among the most powerful groups in the world,” he said.
Panucci also weighed in on what appears to be the imminent sale of Inter goalkeeper Onana.
“Given his importance to the team, I don’t know if I would,” he said of the Cameroonian’s sale.
“But the times dictate those things. “
“He’s a wonderful goalkeeper, even Pep Guardiola has expressed his admiration. But at the same time, 60 million euros is a lot for a goalkeeper. So I don’t know.
