Roberto Mancini has hit back at Inter after the club confirmed the reasons for his dismissal last night.
Despite winning the Scudetto, Mancio was given the push on Tuesday evening after a brief meeting with President Massimo Moratti.
In a statement issues yesterday, the club insisted that it had sacked Mancio for the comments he made after Inter’s Champions League defeat against Liverpool when he shocked the world of calcio by revealing he wouldn’t be at the helm next term.
However, Mancini has hit back at the Beneamata for the way they have treated him.
“With reference to the Press release from Inter that was published this morning in the majority of newspapers and shown on TV in Italy and abroad, I want it to be known that Inter have disclosed false and illicit events that have seriously offended my honour and my reputation,” Mancini’s declaration to news agency ANSA reads.
“As a Coach I thank the President Moratti, Gabriele Oriali and the whole staff that supported me, but above all the Nerazzurri fans who followed me during four years of unforgettable emotion and continue to show their respect for me.”
Mancini is currently the favourite to occupy the vacant Chelsea hot seat and has also been linked with Manchester City, where his son Filippo is currently on loan.
