Walter Sabatini says Inter “aren’t looking at” Milan’s transfer dealings – “our squad is strong”.
The Rossoneri have already signed Mateo Musacchio, Andrea Conti, Ricardo Rodriguez, André Silva and Franck Kessié, and are about to add Leonardo Bonucci and Lucas Biglia.
Their city rivals, meanwhile, have so far only added Milan Skriniar and Borja Valero, plus a number of young players.

“My role is a very prestigious one and I have a lot of responsibility,” technical director Sabatini said in a Press conference today.
“I’m lucky, I always have been, and I accepted this role with pride. I know what we have to do and we’ll do it.
“We’re not looking at signings by other clubs, though I admire what Milan are doing.
“We’ll think about our own model though, our strategy is shared by the club, the staff and the Coach and we know what we need to do.
“Milan have decided to revolutionise their squad, Inter have taken another choice and the fans need to understand that. Hopefully they share in our choice.
“Last year Inter sent a signal that they could be competitive. We have strong players and with the Coach [Luciano Spalletti] we’ve decided to redefine the team, taking into consideration the signals the lads are giving right now.
“In the meantime we’ll work on integration, because the squad is strong and needs to be integrated.”
Sabatini was then asked why the Nerazzurri have been so quiet on the transfer market.
“Because you can also do silent work, it’s not all about fireworks. This is a moment in which dreams are born, but there’s the silent market too.
“Inter are targeting very difficult objectives, which are tied to the will of their clubs. I don’t have to calm anyone, Inter is a guarantee in itself.
“I can say this with knowledge of what’s going on, we’ll do the right things to ensure this team competes as a protagonist.”
