“He’s a crazy professional”: Inter sporting director reveals details of summer arrival

class=”sc-29f61514-0 dXbCZE”>

Yann Sommer (34) celebrated a 2-1 win at Atalanta Bergamo with Inter, but he missed the record. In eight games, the Nati goalkeeper kept his penalty area clean seven times, but failed to do so an eighth time. The Milanese are still number one in Serie A.

The summer’s Italian adventure got off to a somewhat complicated start. He didn’t always look good in his first Test matches. The press immediately questioned the qualities of André Onana’s successor (27, at Manchester United).

But Inter Milan executives soon realized they had brought in the right goalkeeper in Sommer, who joined Inter from Bayern for a modest fee of six million euros.

Sports director with words of praise

This is now confirmed by the words of sports director Piero Ausilio (51) last week. At a press conference he only spoke highly of our Nati goalkeeper, who came to Inter after the club had released two goalkeepers. “In addition to Onana, Handanovic also left,” said Ausilio. “I wanted something specific and he was ready immediately. “We could have focused on younger goalkeepers, but the summer was what we really needed and he proved that.”

How Summer surprised everyone when she arrived

The manager reveals why he was quickly impressed by Sommer. “He had already made sure he learned Italian during the negotiations. He’s a crazy professional.”

The renowned newspaper “Gazzetta dello Sport” is already talking about a super summer. He doesn’t make many saves, but he does make decisive ones. Due to Sommer’s performance, Onana has long been nothing more than a memory in Milan. The newspaper states: “A solid, attentive and experienced goalkeeper.”

Efficient on the pitch, thorough in preparation and professional behind the scenes – Sommer is making more than just an impression in Milan.
