I’m staying at Inter, says Vieri Monday 2 May, 2005
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Christian Vieri says he has no intention of leaving Inter at the end of the current campaign.
The Italian has endured an injury-plagued term at the San Siro with many expecting this to be his last with the outfit.
But the veteran striker insists that he has no thoughts of ending his Nerazzurri adventure in the summer.
"I still have a year left on my contract and I intend to lock all of the doors," said the 31-year-old.
The Italian international was also keen to point out that his relationship with boss Roberto Mancini was still healthy.
"I haven’t got a single problem with Mancini," he underlined. "I remain at his full disposal."
Mancini also wanted to confirm that there are no difficulties between himself and his former Lazio teammate.
"I admire Vieri as a man and a player," stated the tactician. "The fact that he has played so little in the last few months is only down to his knee problems."
Vieri came off the bench yesterday to score the second in his side’s comfortable 2-0 win over Siena.
The veteran has again been associated with a host of clubs recently, including Juventus, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid.
