Disagreements over the group and reinforcements cause friction between Coudet and the Inter board | International

The coach spoke again of the need to expand the group and have more “hierarchy” reinforcements. He also said it will be time before the latest contractor, 19-year-old Maurício, adjusts to the squad and professional football.

Later, the executive Rodrigo Caetano gave an answer in the opposite tone: he praised the “highly qualified” cast assembled by the club in 2020. And he said that the midfielder who arrived from Cruzeiro can, yes, act in the short term.

+ Inter resorts to holders and guarantees a place
+ Coudet leaves the future open at Inter

The situation exploded last Tuesday. But the discomfort of the directive before the recurrent statements of the Argentine about having a “short group” and that, therefore, Inter “Sometimes we play what we want, sometimes we play what we can”, It has been around the longest.

As determined by the giveInterviews in different directions generated discomfort for the board and also for the coach.

In the corridors of the club, there are those who understand that the discourse adopted by Coudet centralizes the merits of the victories in his work and transmits the responsibilities of the defeats to the players.

In addition, the club is experiencing serious financial difficulties. And he understands that he is doing more than he can to bring in reinforcements. This season there were 14 signings, although Gustavo has already left Inter.

Coudet was the first to speak on Tuesday. Asked about the use of Maurício, he said that the boy would need time to be in top form, despite the fact that he is a constant figure in the U-20 team. And that he has come to make up for the absence of Boschilia.

– He is a player who barely worked in the professional. (We have to) Make him adapt and understand what it’s like to be a player in the core group. I hope it will be a solution in three or four days. But we have to adapt it, work. Or it becomes more work. He is a boy with characteristics that I like. But like Yuri (Alberto), I will not put it as a solution. – Said the coach.

Chacho’s statement was eventually refuted by Caetano. The coach is a football enthusiast from Mauritius and was the architect of the signing. He understands that Maurício can now play for Inter, after having participated in 41 games, with six goals from Cruzeiro.

– When Chacho defines “player who has not played in the First Division”, it is not his obligation to know that he was in Cruzeiro and played in the First Division last year. But what other teams did not put their youth? If we have good values ​​at home, we will enjoy it. We are in a pandemic year and we have already shown how limited we are in investment at this time – Caetano rebounds

Before talking about Mauricio, the executive had already defended the group. The manager cited the effort that Inter made to reinforce the squad and recalled the year 2019, when the club was a finalist in the Brazil Cup and reached the quarterfinals of the Libertadores.

– If you refer to the limited cast in number, I have to refer to the extremely qualified group. As for reinforcements, it is always related to desire and will. It is not our reality, it is useless. I will never complain about the cast. We may have options, but we can’t. We only get something that we can afford. And we will fight in all. Last year it was like this, why can’t it be now? I ask.

The next days will be of debate and internal analysis on the hiring and also on the use of Mauritius. The expectation reigns if he will be available for the duel with Coritiba, on Sunday, at 4:00 p.m., in Beira-Rio, for the 20th day of the Brasileirão.
