Ausilio: Inter know how to win
The comments are a response to recent criticism of the Milan club who, after failing to qualify for Europe last season, currently sit tied for sixth place in Serie A.
Ausilio spoke to journalists at the unveiling of new signing Hernanes on Thursday and hit back at suggestions that the club are unable to get back to winning ways.
“We were strongly determined to buy this player, never lost sight of him and unfortunately it took a little longer than expected to make this dream come true.
“It was a difficult negotiation process both financially and in terms of environment, as seen by the protests at Lazio.
“Inter are still the team that over the last 10 years have won more than any other. We cannot suddenly think this has become a club that no longer knows how to build and how to win.
“Our era lasted for a long time, brought in many trophies and many top players. Now we are beginning again.
“Other than Hernanes, I think other top players will arrive, so we just need to have faith and patience, giving Inter, the director and the coach time to work.
“There is the desire to make Inter strong again, so with time and patience we will certainly back to that level.”
