Inter full-back Maicon has reacted angrily to Zlatan Ibrahimovic's decision to leave for Barcelona, saying he has already forgotten about the Swedish striker.
The Brazil international has been at loggerheads with Ibrahimovic all summer, lambasting Inter for the way they drop everything for him.
After a spectacular season in Serie A, Maicon felt he deserved a pay rise only to get the impression Inter were too busy dealing with Ibra.
He flirted with Real Madrid and Chelsea in response, but now looks set to stay with Inter despite attracting even more interest during the Confederations Cup.
“I don't care about who has gone away. Let's think about the players who are here,” Maicon ranted during an interview with Sky Sport Italia.
He then turned his attention away from Ibrahimovic and back towards Inter's 2-0 victory over Milan in World Football Challenge in Boston.
“We played well, even though we are still in the early stages of the season. I have been training for a few days and I played more than I expected.
“We have to work hard and think about the players who are here with us. We will think about working hard to win,” Maicon concluded.
