Inter Milan GM Marotta highlights Zhang: He invested finance and trust

Inter Milan GM Beppe Marotta has highlighted president Steven Zhang during today's title celebrations.

Marotta was speaking at the presentation of the Ambrogino d'Oro to Inter by the Municipality of Milan.

He said, "We all have the celebration in mind, with five hundred thousand people on the streets of Milan, sport has the ability to break down barriers. The main thanks for this prestigious award goes to the players and the coach, to whom I would like to renew our affection. But a team only wins if it has a strong group behind it, all the people behind it should be thanked to the team that goes on the pitch for helping them reach this second star.

"Wanting to win is ambitious, you have to have the courage to face your opponents with skill, then if others are stronger than us we will congratulate them. We will try to continue this winning streak, raising the bar, I say this with humility but with ambition. This is Inter, it is no coincidence that we are celebrating 20 championships, which are thanks to this management but obviously also to the previous ones.

"I bring you greetings from President Zhang, who was unable to participate in this event, but who never lacked affection and security. We are a good club, he has strongly applied the criterion of delegation. He is not here with us and he will suffer from missing this, we are grateful to him for everything he has done in recent years, he has invested capital and trust."
