ERKIN: "I WILL DO EVERYTHING FOR INTER"

Piero Ausilio got proceedings under way in Caner Erkin's first press conference as an Inter player with a comment on the club's latest signing.

"This player doesn't need any introductions," declared the Nerazzurri sporting director. "He has international experience and is a top-quality footballer. We've had our eyes on him in the past but the conditions were never right to close the deal. The opportunity came up this year to bring him to Milan and we're very satisfied to have him here."

The mic was then passed to the Turkish defender, Caner Erkin: "I've joined a top team. I am very happy to be here and I will do everything for Inter."

Responding to whether the presence of Roberto Mancini was a decisive factor in his move, Erkin had this to say: "I have many friends at Galatasaray and I've heard great things about Mancini. He's got great character as a coach and a winning mentality. I can't wait to work with him, he's part of the reason that I'm here."
