What They're Saying

Inter Milan midfielder Mateo Kovacic (via Football Italia): "I have to thank the club for giving me the opportunity to renew my contract. I'm happy. There are five years ahead of me in which to do well. We hope to qualify for the Champions League this season. With the players who have arrived [Xherdan Shaqiri and Lukas Podolski], we hope to get there."

Genoa manager Gian Piero Gasperini (via Football Italia): "Our objective must not be third place this season, as otherwise we'll get criticized if we don't achieve it. We have an extraordinary position in the table and want to hold on to it as long as possible."
