Juventus Coach Ciro Ferrara: Inter Are Favourites For The Scudetto

New Juventus coach Ciro Ferrara points his side in the right direction as the beat Siena 3-0 in Tuscany

Juventus coach Ciro Ferrara has claimed Inter are the favourites to win next season's Scudetto race, despite the Bianconeri's impressive transfer campaign.

Ferrara has made some good signings this summer with the hope they will pay immediate dividends for the upcoming campaign. Fabio Cannavaro arrived from Real Madrid, Diego was captured from Werder Bremen, and Felipe Melo is on the verge of joining from Fiorentina.

The former defender has been planning for next term, but he is keeping his feet on the ground as he invites Inter to set the standard.

"Mourinho is disappointed? Inter remain the favourites," Ferrara is quoted as saying by Goal.com Italia.

"Sometimes you have to stay away from certain declarations in order to allow others to be on the front pages.

"You can say Inter are the favourites. Milan and Fiorentina are also there. It's better to let the others make the front pages and for us to work in the dark."

The Bianconeri play against Cisco Roma in a friendly later this evening.
