New Delhi: The powerful Brazilian, Adriano, has assured the club’s fans that he will be rejoining with his Inter team mates early in the New Year.
It’s no surprise that Inter are sitting pretty atop the Serie A table after 17 rounds of football. They are undoubtedly the best side in Italy at present, and have proven that once again this term.
The biggest talking point to come out of their season thus far however, would have to be the rumours surrounding the future of their troubled star Adriano, who has been as inconsistent as ever this year.
There have been several reports indicating that the Brazilian is set to leave the club, with a return to Brazil the most likely of results; however the player has recently stated that he wishes to remain at Inter, all but ruling out a move elsewhere.
"I have never said that I would like to leave Inter," Adriano declared in an interview as reported by the Brazilian site LanceNet.
These words are likely to put to an end the rumours linking him to Flamengo in Brazil, a club that he made a name for himself at, before signing for Inter in 2001.
"I love Flamengo, as I grew up there, and I have already made it clear that if I were to return to Brazil, then that would be my destination.
"But I do not think that will happen now," he added.
Therefore, it is a near certainty that the Brazilian star will remain in Milan, alongside Jose Mourinho, the coach of the club. The two have had a problematic relationship thus far, however Adriano has insisted that, "we get along very well, and so I don’t think that will affect my chances of playing in the future.
"He is a very sincere person, and he is great for the club," he concluded.
Inter get 2009 underway with a match at the San Siro against Cagliari on January 10.
