Inter Milan playmaker Christian Eriksen, 29, is expected to remain on the team this winter.
Coach Antonio Conte Inter Milan met with local reporters after completing the AC Milan and Copa Italia quarterfinals (2-1 Inter Milan win) at Giuseppe Meazza Stadium in Milan, Italy on the 27th (Korean time). I’m not going anywhere,” he said.
Ericsen, who moved from Tottenham Hotspur in England to Inter Milan in January last year, started only four games in the league this season.
I rarely scored.
When he scored one goal in the league in the second half of last season and a total of four goals in the official game, the advocacy that he was going through a period of adaptation was encouraging.
However, advocacy disappeared as it fell into a deeper slump this season, the second season in Italy.
Rumors continued to flow in the winter transfer market, such as returning to Tottenham, who had had the most brilliant days, or that AS Roma had already approached to sign him.
However, Ericsen made the most brilliant performance since his debut in Inter Milan against AC Milan on this day and put the transfer rumor to’once’.
Ericsen, who was substituted in the 43rd minute when it was tense 1-1, scored a reversal goal with a picturesque take-up kick from the left side of the penalty in the 52nd minute.
Thanks to Ericsen’s’one shot’, Inter Milan not only won the’Milan Derby’ against AC Milan, which took pride, but was also able to continue the challenge of winning the Copa Italy.
For Ericsen, it was a more special goal since it was the first goal in the official game this season.
Director Conte praised Ericsen.
He said he was looking for a way to give Ericsen more opportunities.
“We are working on whether Ericsen can tactically replace (previous midfielder) Marcelo Brozovic,” Conte said. “Because there are no other playmakers other than Ericsen.”
He said, “Ericsen, who is very smart and has good soccer skills, is in my idea.”
