MILAN - Ahead of #askKovacic, the Nerazzurri midfielder had a chat to Sky Sport Italia this afternoon at Appiano Gentile. The Croatian touched upon a number of matters, including Serie A, Inter's season so far and the upcoming match against Napoli: "It's been a tough season, but there are still three months to go. We still have a chance to be successful," said the number 10.
"It was a shame we lost against Fiorentina. Yes, I've scored eight goals already this term but they're not important. Competition for places is healthy and can only help you. You can't build a team around a single player. I've got a great relationship with Mancini, just as all my team-mates do. On a personal level, I need to improve, particularly defensively. I have to be able to play in several positions in midfield."
They also asked him about one of the new signings, Marcelo Brozovic: "He's a professional guy and is older than me. Obviously it's not up to me to give him advice, particularly on the pitch, that's something he discusses with our coaching staff. Italian football is tough, there's less space up top. I'm settled at Inter and my family and I are happy, that's what matters. Games against Napoli are always great, they look to play football too. The team is improving but we've still got lots to work on," said Kovacic.
