Dalbert’s agent says “a lot of teams were interested” in his client, but Inter “wanted to focus on him”.
The full-back joined the Nerazzurri from Nice last summer, but endured a difficult first season in Italy.
It was expected that the 25-year-old would be sold this summer, but he has been given a chance by Coach Luciano Spalletti and provided an assist against Cagliari at the weekend.
“Every player is happy when they can help their team win,” Emerson Figueiredo told FCInterNews.

“Every player is happy when they can help their team win,” Emerson Figueiredo told FCInterNews.
“He’ll be happy too, for the assist he provided to Lautaro Martinez and for the there points. I can only praise him for what he’s done on the pitch.
“He’s calm and strong. Last year he started pre-season late, and it was normal to expect a period of adaptation to such a tactical league.
“It’s a normal process which many players who go from one league to the other go through.
“There were a lot of teams interested in possibly signing him, but the Nerazzurri wanted to focus on him. They knew he could be important for them.
“They believed in him, and they believe even more today in his qualities and potential. And for his part, Dalbert wanted to show Inter what he’s capable of.”
