Toldo to be fined by Inter
Francesco Toldo is set to be fined by Inter for comments he made about the running of the club.
The goalkeeper claimed that his outfit should try to follow the example set by Juventus in off the field matters.
"Ours is a club of real potential but there is work to do on a number of things," he told the Gazzetta dello Sport.
"For example, on the eve of our Champions’ League semi-final against Milan the club proposed a plan to cut salaries.
"This wasn’t the time to do such a thing as there was already a great deal of tension around the squad.
"I also think that a certain type of humility wouldn't be negative. From teams that have won more, for example Juventus, I think the club could learn something useful."
Toldo’s thoughts were not met with approval by Inter and technical director Marco Branca in particular.
"I’ve read what Toldo said," stated the Nerazzurri official. "I find his words untimely and full of contradictions.
"Seeing as we have rules about this, Toldo’s declaration will certainly have disciplinary consequences as Inter players are not permitted to express judgements about the club."
