Agent: ‘Pio Esposito future is certainly at Inter’ despite Arsenal and Man Utd focus

Agent: ‘Pio Esposito future is certainly at Inter’ despite Arsenal and Man Utd focus Pio Esposito is targeted by clubs including Arsenal and Manchester United, but the Italy star’s agent assures ‘his future is at Inter, without doubt, for many years.’ The 21-year-old bagged a brace in last night’s 3-1 Nations League victory over France at San Siro, taking his total tally to nine goals in just 14 senior caps.

However, his agent warns they can forget about tempting the striker away from the Stadio Meazza.

The club has always shown a sense of belonging and gratitude, they never held back. He will certainly remain at Inter for many years.” A product of the Nerazzurri youth academy along with big brother Sebastiano, Pio had gone out on loan in Serie B to Spezia and was expecting another temporary move, until Cristian Chivu took over and decided to bet on him straight away.

Sometimes you just don’t have the right conditions to do deals, but Pio never thought about leaving, because he is very happy at Inter. “The Nerazzurri jersey is like his second skin.” It was a special night for the Esposito family at San Siro, because while Pio scored twice, Sebastiano missed a penalty against France. “I must admit, I didn’t watch either of the two penalties, it was too nerve-wracking,” confessed their agent. “I was having dinner with their brother, Salvatore, and we stepped away from the TV. Pio felt the responsibility after his missed penalty against Bosnia, so scoring last night was like taking that weight off his mind.”
