Masina has two goals and three assists in 13 Serie A games this season.

Bologna's coveted full-back Adam Masina insists he is not paying any attention to the rumours linking him with a move to Inter Milan and is just focused on enjoying the career he never thought he would have.

The 21-year-old has burst onto the scene for the Emilia-Romagna club this season, just years after they told him he was not going to make the grade. The Morocco-born defender, who now represents Italy at U-21 level, has more than proven those critics wrong and played his way into the shop…

Inter boss Roberto Mancini has played down his team's title aspirations, despite their 4-0 weekend win over Frosinone.

The last time Inter Milan were in the San Paolo, Mauro Icardi chipped in an exquisite penalty to secure a 2-2 draw against 10-man Napoli last March. Much has changed since then, but as the teams prepare to face each on Monday night, the match may well be no less dramatic. The fixture sees first meet second, as two of Italy's best defences go head to head. The game will also be seen as an early indicator of both teams' title ambitions. While the Nerazzurri will be hoping that their Argentine striker,…

Mauro Icardi has been linked with Arsenal but is unlikely to go anywhere during the January window.
Inter Milan will not consider selling Arsenal target Mauro Icardi in January, sources have told ESPN FC.

Inter boss Roberto Mancini has played down his team's title aspirations, despite their 4-0 weekend win over Frosinone. Former AC Milan and Italy coach Arrigo Sacchi has hit out at Inter Milan's "antiquated" style of play.
The Nerazzurri picked up their biggest win of the season at the weekend, seeing off Frosinone 4-0 at the San Siro on Sunday evening.
Their eight other wins this term have all been by a single goal — including seven 1-0 victories — and Sacchi believes Inter boss Roberto Mancini should look to implement a more attacking game.
"I rate Mancini very highly, but I believe he can do a lot better," Sacchi…

Inter sit atop the Seire A table, but their tactics have attracted their fair share of flak.

Former AC Milan and Italy manager Arrigo Sacchi was speaking at a conference on Monday, and he made mention of Roberto Mancini's Inter and their style of play. La Gazzetta Dello Sport reported that Sacchi said that the Nerazzurri coach has revisited an "ancient style of football," which would not be appreciated outside of Italy. This came despite Inter romping home to a 4-0 home win against Frosinone on Sunday, and while his words at first sound harsh, they actually depicted the modern-day Inter…

Inter Milan will be hoping Mauro Icardi finds his shooting boots this weekend against Frosinone.
Ahead of Inter Milan's Serie A match at home to Frosinone on Sunday, the club's sporting director Piero Ausilio made it adamantly clear that Mauro Icardi was not for sale.

Romania and Italy played out an entertaining 2-2 draw in an International Friendly. Christian Vieri says he now looks forward to watching Italy play again, thanks to the work of Antonio Conte, whom he rates as one of the best coaches around together with Bayern's Pep Guardiola.
Vieri represented Italy 49 times and scored 23 goals for his country, but since losing his place in the national team a year before their 2006 World Cup triumph, he has barely followed the fortunes of the Squadra Azzurra.
That has changed over the past year, however, since former Juventus coach Conte took…
