Inter: 'How dare Fiorentina!'

By Football Italia staff

Inter reacted to Fiorentina accusations over Mohamed Salah by threatening legal action of their own.

The situation took an even uglier turn today when Fiorentina director Paolo Panerai wrote on Twitter that Inter “should be relegated” for trying to poach Salah and had a “lack of transparency” in their funding.

This evening the Nerazzurri released a statement referencing Panerai’s comments.

“F.C. Internazionale announces that it has read with great astonishment the comments made by the Fiorentina vice President on his personal Twitter account.

“It is not acceptable for anybody to talk out of turn about our club, casting doubt over its solidity and transparency. It is not acceptable for anybody to offend our club and, as a consequence, our fans, with comments that are utterly lacking in foundation.

“F.C. Internazionale is dismayed by the request for exemplary sporting action to be taken against the club, given that it and many other clubs has just signed a public agreement with UEFA to respect the FFP regulations.

“Given that Fiorentina is clearly attempting to involve Inter in a matter that doesn’t concern it, in order to cover up a problem between Fiorentina and the player Mohamed Salah, F.C. Internazionale will make recourse to any authority necessary in order to protect its image and integrity.”
