MILAN - "It's an honour for me to spend the rest of my career at the place I love the most. Inter has been that, the best years of my life for me and my family."
That was how Javier Zanetti described signing a new contract to see out the rest of his career with the Nerazzurri: "I'm already thinking about the future of the club, working hard to return to European football's top table, where I played wearing these colours. I believe in the plans the president and club are carrying forward to get us there."
