Conte defends Eriksen’s treatment at Inter Milan

Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte has defended his management of Christian Eriksen.

Eriksen has spoken openly of the potential of leaving in January.

“Players must be functional to an idea and a project in order to be competitive at national and international level,” Conte said.

“The modern footballer must be fast, strong, resistant.

“I take the technique for granted if you join a club like Inter.”
