Geoffrey Kondogbia is open about Inter's targets: 'We are competing for Champions League qualification and the Scudetto'.

The 22-year-old Frenchman joined Serie A at a moment when the championship appears to be undergoing a rebirth, and he was asked what the league looked like from his perspective.

“It's a championship of great tactical discipline and rigor,” he told Il Corriere dello Sport.

“I watched it as a child with its many champions, Ronaldo above all, but there was an endless list of them: [Zinedine] Zidane, [Javier] Zanetti.

“If you can make it here you can make it anywhere, and you can play wherever you like. It isn't easy.

“But I've only played one game, it'll take a little longer to judge it properly.

“Here things aren't a cakewalk, but then why should we be fearful? And fearful of what?

“Sure, there are many teams that are well equipped, but so are we.

“It isn't easy but we're competing for a place in the Champions League, and, why not, also for the Scudetto.”

Kondogbia was then asked about his relationship with Coach Roberto Mancini.

“We have a good dialogue, even though I must make some progress with my Italian.

“But Mancini is clear with me, he tells me things, I listen, I understand him, I like it. I know what he wants.

“What are my weaknesses? If you read the statistics, and they do correspond to reality, I need to be more incisive in my final pass, on the assist.

“I must improve on that, and in my finishing skills too. Against Atalanta I had two shots on goal and I could have done better.”
