Luciano Spalletti insists the controversy over social media accounts of Inter players “paradoxically united us, as we all had a good laugh.”

There were reports in the media over the last 48 hours of rows between Mauro Icardi, Ivan Perisic and Antonio Candreva over who they were following or unfollowing on social media.

Icardi also tried to quash rumours of marital trouble by posting a picture of him holding hands with wife Wanda Nara and the caption: ‘I love you.’

“These things gave us a good laugh, and in fact paradoxically united us, as we all laughed together…” Coach Spalletti told Mediaset Premium.

“The fans are the ones who suffer, because the media sends out a message that their sentiment towards Inter is in the hands of children rather than professionals. But that is absolutely not the case, as we have a group of exemplary professionals.

“Obviously, it’s also worth noting that social media sagas can disturb our work and reaching our objective. We must therefore be careful, but in this case there was nothing unusual happening.

“There are no problems between the players. I say this because bringing home matters into the locker room should not happen and there has to be a detachment when talking about personal issues.”
