Jeison Murillo targets the Champions League with Inter but admits 'Serie A is tough and very different from La Liga'.
The defender recently returned from his holidays after playing for Colombia in the Copa America, so that he did not join his teammates in their North American tournee.
“I spoke with the new signings and told them that playing for Inter is unique, especially because of the fans, the stadium and the city,” Murillo told Inter Channel. “Our objective is to return to the Champions League. In the championship the other teams are strengthening themselves, but we've got to think only about ourselves.
“I came to Inter exactly one year ago, and I had my presentation here at Brunico. I had a good impression of this club from the very start.
“We started out well, then we had some problems, but we managed a good placement anyway. Serie A is tough, and very different from the Spanish Liga.
“Inter are a great team and I want to assure the fans that we'll give it our all in every competition. All of the national teams were strong [in the Copa America], it was a nice experience to play against teams that had such strong players.”
