Eto’o: ‘I’d Like To coach Inter’

Eto’o: ‘I’d Like To coach Inter’

Samuel Eto’o would like to Coach Inter one day – “I’ll win like I did as a player”.
The striker is in Italy to lay-out his claim against Sampdoria for €400,000 and spoke about the Nerazzurri after his Press conference.
“Would I Coach Inter?” Eto’o considered.
“Yes, one day. I’d like to Coach, I don’t know if it will be at Barcelona, Inter or somewhere else. But when I start to Coach, I’ll win like I did as a player.”
Eto’o was also asked for his opinion on the current Beneamata squad, having won the treble with the club in 2010.
“We have to give Inter time to rebuild everything. We had a team of men at [my] Inter and that made the difference. People thought we’d lose 6-0 to Barcelona [in the 2010 Champions League semi-final].
“I’d love to see [Massimo] Moratti as President.
“Because Inter need him? Not only that, football needs him. Moratti was like a father to everyone, not just me. He’s a real man.”
Finally, the Cameroonian striker discussed the fairytale rise of Leicester City, with Italian Claudio Ranieri on the bench.
“I love Ranieri’s Leicester, I like them a lot and they’ll definitely win the League.
“Jamie Vardy? He’s very good, but Leicester’s real phenomenon is Ranieri. Incredible.”
