I will only leave Inter for a great club
…It seems that your adventure with Inter ended in almost cinematic style
I’d wait for the final credits to roll on if I was you.
?Meaning
Nobody has come forward officially as yet. And I’m only leaving Inter for a great team, where I can play at top levels.
?Napoli and Torino
Two great clubs, without a doubt.
?Italy or Spain
If I could choose, I’d rather stay in Italy. Anyway I’ll speak with my agent, Paco Casal, who’s just arrived to Italy and has already spoken to Branca.
You looked very sad after scoring the other night.
Yes, It’s true. I said to myself, damn, this could be my last game for Inter and I score against Milan, for the very first time. What if it’s a sign
?What kind of sign
…Maybe this is the year
.You really struggle to leave Inter
Yes, it’s not easy, for many reasons. For example I wouldn’t like people to think that I’m leaving because I’m not good enough for a great club like Inter. When I’m 100% fit I don’t feel inferior to anyone. I think I’ve proven that even during a cursed season like last year. I remember the CL game against Spartak Moscow, after two defeats in CL. It was just me and Cruz left. We played a great game.
…And maybe you helped Mancini to get out of trouble
Maybe (smiles). As far as I’m concerned, you can’t stay at Inter for 10 years without having great qualities, even if you have the support of the club’s president. One day Figo told me, “Chino, if I’ve had your left foot God knows what I could have done.” Do you understand what I’m saying? One of the greatest players of all time talks to me like that. Luis’ words will always remain in my heart, they make me believe that I’ve done something good in my career, that I’ve left a mark, even if small.
?Did you speak to Moratti after the TIM Trophy
He sent me a very cute text message. He’s a second father to me. Before I make any decisions I will surely speak to him.
?Was the Copa America your last act for Uruguay
Playing for Uruguay is something so dear to me. I’d like to try and play in 2010. At the moment though there aren’t the conditions to achieve that.
