Mourinho: 'Veloso is a good player'
With Patrick Vieira out of picture, the Italian press has been relentless in pursuit of a midd-fielder to be contracted by Inter Milan.
The Frenchman was not widely used, but its output has resulted in at least one option for the "Nerazzurri's" kernel, so it wouldn't be surprise if the Milanese settle for a new hire.
At the press conference that served as a preview for the match between Inter and Juventus, for Italian Cup, Mourinho was faced with two choices: Hernanes Brazilian average of Sao Paulo and Miguel Veloso, Sporting's multipurpose midfielder.
The coach didn't avoid the challenge and commented the situation of both:
"I consider them both good players, but their situations are complicated and do not correspond to that Inter wants right now," began by saying Mourinho, before referring to Miguel Veloso in a quite complimentary tone:
"The player Veloso is very important for Sporting". He'll now play the semi-final of League Cup against Benfica and quarter-finals of Cup of Portugal against FC Porto;
Sporting is in fourth place and wants to get into Champions League by, and we can't lend a player like him, nor the Inter is willing to pay the demanded sum by the club. "
In Mourinho's words easily could been seen the admiration for the Portuguese international, of 23.
About Hernanes, "Lo Speciale" admited not to be so well informed about him, so his preference seems to fall on the green and white midfielder. "I don't know Hernanes as well as Veloso, once I see him every week on tv, but I like his(Hernanes) style," concludes José Mourinho.
