Massimo Moratti believes Inter “reflect the character of Roberto Mancini” and looks forward to facing Juventus.

The Derby d’Italia is played next Sunday evening and they’ve had very different starts to the Serie A season.

“Many sides are capable of winning the Scudetto, although compared to previous years we have a much better chance,” the former President told Sky Sport Italia.

“It is strange to see Juventus so far back in the table, especially considering everything they did last year.

The Derby d’Italia is played next Sunday evening and they’ve had very different starts to the Serie A season.

“Many sides are capable of winning the Scudetto, although compared to previous years we have a much better chance,” the former President told Sky Sport Italia.

“It is strange to see Juventus so far back in the table, especially considering everything they did last year.

“What was my favourite Inter-Juve? Certainly a 6-0 at San Siro. I was young then and always remember it with a smile.”

That extraordinary result was on April 4 1954, when Moratti’s father Angelo was President of Inter.

Now Erick Thohir is at the helm and Mancini on the bench.

“The team has been renovated a great deal, we have high hopes and want to do well this season.

“There’s a lot of Mancini in this new Inter, as he specifically requested all the players. The team also reflects the character of their Coach.

“I am happy with how all the players are doing, but if I have to pick one who has impressed me the most then I’ll say Jeison Murillo.”
