Inter Milan director Luis Figo has admitted that an era has come to an end but the club is working towards building another winning team.
Following the Calciopoli scandal of 2006, Inter dominated Italy s Serie A by winning five consecutive Scudetti.
However, success has eluded the 2010 European champions who finished in sixth place last season.
Inter s era has come to an end, the winning cycle is over but the club is working to get back to being the winning side of previous years, it just take some patience, Figo said.
Scudetto? We d have to prove that we deserve it. It s true that we miss the Champions League a great deal, both in terms of prestige and income, but we are in the Europa League now and will try to make the most of it.

Known as a man who’s easy on the trigger, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich looks set to make the Italian tactician his new managerial victim at the end of the season.
Ever since taking over from Ken Bates in June 2003, the Russian billionaire was never too shy to exercise his executive dominance. Fifteen years into his Chelsea reign, Roman Abramovich seems to be getting ready for his 14th sacking overall with two men – Guus Hiddink and Jose Mourinho – experiencing the Russian’s wrath twice during that time. Antonio Conte is the Russian’s eighth permanent manager at Chelsea.
A notable presence at nearly every Chelsea game, Roman Abramovich did enough to impose himself as a caring person who likes to get involved in day to day operations but his track record of ma…
Federico Chiesa is likely to be staying at Fiorentina next season despite interest from Napoli and Roma because he is very happy , according to his father Enrico.
The 20-year-old winger enjoyed something of a breakout season in 2017-18, playing 36 league games and scoring six goals.
Although he burst onto the scene in the previous campaign with 27 Serie A appearances, it was in this term that he found consistency and started to become a regular option for the senior Italy side, featuring three times for his country.
Other clubs have started to show interest in the Fiorentina youth product, with Roma and Napoli reported to be most keen, while Juventus, Inter and AC Milan are also said to be keeping an eye on him.
But Chiesa s father, who also played fo…
Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has hinted he would be open to a swap deal involving Radamel Falcao and Fernando Torres amid resurfacing speculation linking the duo with exits from their respective clubs, .
Torres has failed to established himself as a No. 1 strike option at Chelsea following his £50 million megamove from Anfield to Stamford Bridge in January 2011.
In addition, the arrival of former Liverpool mentor Rafael Benitez much to the chagrin of the Blues supporters has bore no fruit.
According to recent reports, Torres may be offered a Chelsea escape, with Simeone hinting but remaining somewhat coy on whether he would welcome the Spain international back to the Estadio Vicente Calderón.
“Fernando Torres is currently playing …
Mark Hughes Stoke City side sent his former club Fulham into the Championship with a 4-1 victory at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday.
Felix Magath had never previously suffered relegation during his managerial career, but the German s impressive record came to an end as his men were swept aside by rampant Stoke in a one-sided Premier League clash.
Sunderland s victory at Manchester United ensures the London club s 13-season stay in the top flight is over and the manner in which they were beaten at Stoke will have been difficult to take for Fulham s supporters.
Peter Odemwingie opened the scoring with his sixth goal since his move from Cardiff City, whose relegation was also confirmed on Saturday.
Marko Arnautovic doubled Stoke s lead in a game that they dominate…
Portuguese champions Porto face a tough road trip to Russia on Thursday to take on Zenit St Petersburg in the Champions League.
Porto began their 2011/12 European campaign with a 2-1 win at home against Ukraine s Shakhtar Donetsk, but will face a much tougher task when they travel from one side of the continent to the other to face Luciano Spalletti s Zenit.
The Russians were shock 2-1 losers against Cypriot s APOEL in their Group G opener on September 13, and need to make the most of their home fixtures if they are to qualify for the knockout stages.
Although the two sides have never met, Porto have never lost on Russian soil and won two matches there on their march to last season s Europa League title, scoring six goals in the process.
Despite losing s…

Tottenham are believed to have rejected a world-record bid from Real Madrid for Gareth Bale
According to Daily Mail and other newspapers, Tottenham are believed to have rejected a world record bid for Welsh superstar Gareth Bale, depending on which newspaper you read the bid was between £82million and £86million.
Chairman Daniel Levy appears determined to keep Bale at White Hart Lane and looks set to reject all bids for Tottenham’s star player.
Upset
The player himself is believed to be upset by the bid being rejected and the fact that Levy would not even consider the bid.

Ferran Torres believes he is ready for a new challenge, with Manchester City and Valencia this week agreeing a fee for the winger.
Stats Perform News understands City will pay an initial £21.3million (€23m), plus further add-ons, for the Spain Under-21 international.
Talks between the clubs are on-going, but an agreement on the wider terms of the deal is thought to be close as City look to bolster their wing options following the departure of Leroy Sane to Bayern Munich.
Right-winger Ferran, 20, has shown significant promise ever since his senior debut as a 17-year-old and enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in 2019-20, making the most of Goncalo Guedes long-term injury absence to become a regular starter.
But with his contract set to expire next year and …
Cole Palmer is a Blue.
And he’s here to stay.
— Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC)
I’m delighted to sign this new deal, Palmer said. I achieved a lot in my first season here, and hopefully I can continue to experience great things at this club, both on a personal level and in terms of bringing success and trophies to Chelsea.
Despite Maresca welcoming nine new faces at Stamford Bridge, the latest being Pedro Neto, Palmer s place in the team looks secure after last season s heroics.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Omari Kellyman and Marc Guiu are just a few to make the move to Stamford Bridge this transfer window, taking their spending well over the £150m mark.
Chelsea kickstart their Premier League campaign this weekend against Palmer s former cl…
