Adriano plans to stay at Internazionale

Brazilian striker Adriano has ended recent rumours that linked the player to teams in his home country, saying that he plans to stay at Serie A leaders Internazionale.

Most rumours pointed in the direction of Flamengo, but nothing of this is true, according to the player: “I have never said that I want to leave Inter.

“I love Flamengo, since I grew up there. I have already made clear that when I return to Brazil, then that would be my destination. But I don’t think it will happen now,” he said.

Adriano began his career at ‘Fla’ in 2000, but joined Inter a year later. Since, the forward also represented Fiorentina, Parma and Sao Paulo. This summer, he returned to Milan’s San Siro and so far scored one goal in seven appearances.
