Tuttosport reports today that Lukas Podolski can end up in the Europa League list and not Xherdan Shaqiri. The first one is as we know only on a loan with Inter and the second one we can brand more as a acquisition. The fact is that the German was promised during the negotiation hat took him to the Nerazzurri that he will participate in Europa League. Shaqiri will therefore focus on Serie A and grabbing the third and finale spot to Champions League.
Speaking at a press conference to prepare for the match against Palermo, Vincenzo Montella, coach of Fiorentina, said he was surprised by the double signings of Shaqiri-Podolski made by Inter in the last days: “They have made two important signings, it is the team that has made the most reinforcements. it didn’t seem as if they had the **** but… I’d like to understand a little more about this financial fair play.”

During the pre-Genoa press conference Roberto Mancini spoke to reporters and answered questions. While being his usual humorous and at the same time serious self, he did not rule out more signings. Knowing the team is playing in three competitions, with Juan Jesus’ ban, the coach alluded to needing squad reinforcements.
“Juan Jesus will be out for four games and it could be a problem, so we will see if there’s any chance to add to the defense.”
“Lucas Leiva to Inter? I’ve heard these rumors, there is a lot of talk. But I don’t think he will leave and we have not received an offer.” That is how Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers answered a question about a possible sale of the Brazilian midfielder during the press conference ahead of Liverpool’s match against Sunderland.
