Lautaro: "The best Christmas gift for all Inter fans"

“This win is the perfect Christmas present for all of the Inter fans. We still want to prove ourselves, and more importantly to ourselves. It was an important game. Atalanta are a strong side, who in recent years have performed extremely well in the league and in Europe. They're tough and aggressive in their pressing, to get you to slip up. We prepared really well and executed our plan as we intended. There's always room for improvement, but these are three huge points. We're doing well and I'm happy with our work. These three points are a gift not only for our fans but also for our families, who always by our side. Pio and his assist? He works hard, I talk with him a lot, he wants to keep getting better. He is on a growth path, and he needs to keep composure because he is young and you grow through mistakes too. We are letting him grow at his own pace: he will be a great asset for us and the National team. 2025 comes to a close: at the end of last season I had a problem with my hip flexor and struggled, even though I still played important matches. After the summer, I rested and worked hard to come into this season in the best possible shape. The staff is essential; they help us raise our level. I’m always trying to grow and improve. Having young, hungry players behind you also pushes you to raise your level: you always have to be ready and motivated to improve. I am driven by that every day. ”
