Inter winger Antonio Candreva revealed he felt liberated after helping the Nerazzurri return to the Champions League last season.
The Nerazzurri earned their spot in Europe’s top competition thanks to a 3-2 victory over Lazio on the final day of the campaign.
It ended a run of six years without Champions League football for Inter, and Candreva admits it was a great feeling to see the club achieve it’s goal.
“My first thought when Matias Vecino’s header went in was: ‘We did it.'”, he told Inter TV.
“After years of exile for Inter, it was a feeling of liberation given we really wanted to achieve our goal.
“Inter are a great club, which is what I wanted to achieve in my career. I managed to do it, and I’m honoured to have worn this jersey.”
Inter’s first match after the international break is the Derby della Madoninna against AC Milan on Sunday.
