“I think we were strong last season and have kept the basic structure with a few new additions such as Diego Milito and Thiago Motta, so we are even stronger now,” he told Sky Italia.
“Milan are facing some big changes, starting from their Coach, as I admire Leonardo a great deal. He’ll adopt different tactics, so we can expect anything from them, both good and bad.
“They could rediscover the hunger they have been lacking in recent years, at least in Serie A.
“Juve were already a good team last season and have become very competitive with the introduction of Fabio Cannavaro, Felipe Melo and Diego.”
In recent years Roma had been the main challengers to Inter for the title, but last season they failed to finish in the top four and are struggling financially.
“There are few families who are still able to control a football club,” sighed Moratti. “It is a very difficult thing to deal with.
“The Sensi family did very well in the past and this girl [President Rosella] has the tenacity and pride to keep hold of the reins.
“I admire her a great deal and know full well the problems one has to face in making these decisions.”
Perhaps the hardest working side on the transfer market has been Napoli, as patron Aurelio De Laurentiis snapped up Fabio Quagliarella, Luca Cigarini, Hugo Campagnaro, Juan Zuniga and Morgan De Sanctis.
“De Laurentiis has done very well, as he made some good buys last year too. He took a very generous approach to the passionate fans and I hope he can do well – although preferably not taking three points off us the same way they have done in the last two years!”
Inter have been defeated at the San Paolo for the last two consecutive seasons.
