I’ll fight to stay at Inter Milan – Obi

Nigeria international Joel Obi has said that he hopes to stay and fight for his place at Serie A giants Inter Milan after his latest loan spell with Parma.

The 23-year-old left-footed midfielder, who made just eight Serie A appearances during his loan spell with Parma last term due to injury woes, maintained he is looking forward to fighting for a place in the Nerazzurri’s starting line-up this summer and so he is making himself fully available for selection by coach Walter Mazzarri.

“I’m ready to fight for a starting spot in Inter,” the Nigeria international told Complete Sports.”

“I’m back with my team and if all goes well, I would be more than happy to stay.”

“I don’t really know and I don’t care about the rumours regarding my future. I feel good and I’m willing to adapt to any role that the coach asks of me.”

Obi missed the final cut for the World Cup after being part of the coach Stephen Keshi’s 30-man provisional squad.
