Former Juventus and Italy defender Mark Iuliano believes that Inter Milan is still the team to beat in the upcoming Serie A season. The Nerazzurri clinched the Serie A title last season with a commanding lead, securing the title with five rounds to spare after a historic win over AC Milan on Matchday 33.
Despite efforts from their rivals such as Juventus, Milan, and Napoli, who have all appointed new head coaches and are strengthening their squads, Iuliano is confident that Inter has what it takes to defend their title successfully.
In an interview with TuttoJuve via FcInterNews, Iuliano stated, “Yes, Inter are still the favorites. They are the champions of Italy. They have the strongest team and play the best football. The group has been together for many years now, so it is logical that they are the ones to beat.”
Iuliano also commented on Napoli and Milan’s activities in the transfer market, praising Napoli for their decisive moves and acknowledging the coaching prowess of Antonio Conte. He expressed some doubts about Milan’s project, particularly regarding their striker signings, but praised the acquisition of Alvaro Morata, whom he considers a great center forward and a valuable addition to the team.
In conclusion, Iuliano expects Inter Milan to continue their success in the Serie A title race and commends Milan for securing Morata’s services.
