Marotta: Zamparini is a great connoisseur and he loves football deeply

During her guest appearance at Telelombbardia, Marotta recalled and mourned the recently deceased former Palermo, Venetian President Maurizio Zamparini, and spoke about Inter and his position as CEO.

Mr. Zamparini died of illness at the age of 80, and you spent your time together in Venice, so what do you remember about him?

"First of all, I am very sorry for the passing away of Zamparini, who was the president of the club and has always been a friend of mine, we have known each other for more than 40 years and we are all from Varese.' ”

"In 1986, I inspired Zamparini to buy Venice, and a few years later, I also came to Venice. It was a beautiful time, and we were all passionate inside. Now that I think about it, I can only feel regret. But I have always had great respect and admiration for Zamparini, and I will always remember what he did. I can't forget the great enthusiasm he had in Venice and Palermo, and the determination with which he made every decision. Zamparini is always ambitious, and his determination has always been firm, including countless times when he was dismissed as an employer coach (joke). He dared to tell the truth and openly challenged the authority of the fa's internal political level because he loved football too much. ”

"The 2006 Italian national team, from Zacardo and Barzagli to Grosso and Toni, these talented players were discovered by zamparini, a talented scout who is really a great connoisseur."

Since you came to Inter Milan, Inter Milan and Suning have shown great enthusiasm and determination

"I think whoever he is in a senior role like my role at Inter at a club, he has to have a very strong persuasive and diplomatic ability, and I think that ability is the magic weapon for a person to be a good professional manager. As for the other conditions for success, I think it also includes whether the club has a far-sighted long-term plan, whether it is forward-looking, and I am very happy to work with this type of club to grow bigger and stronger. ”
