Adriano insists that he will still be at Inter next season, but admits that he is uncertain of who will be coaching him in 2006-07.
The Brazilian has been linked with an exit after a difficult campaign with Real Madrid apparently preparing a bid.
But the striker has told Inter Channel that he is staying, even if he couldn’t say the same for current boss Roberto Mancini.
“I’ll be here next season, I don’t know what he [Mancini] will be doing,” he said after last night’s Coppa Italia victory.
“Would I be happy if he stayed? Yes, he is a Coach who gets the team to play football and that is important.”
Rumours have circulated this term that the two men don’t share a great feeling, but Adriano has looked to dismiss that theory.
“I have never had any problems with him,” continued the former Parma star. “In my view, he is a great Coach.
“We both want to win and he just looks to get the very best out of me because he knows that I can offer more.
“I have been missing a bit this term and it hasn’t been a great campaign for me,” he admitted after his significant dip in form.
“I now must just work with tranquility and look to get back to form for the World Cup with Brazil and for Inter next season.”
Although Mancini still has a year left to run on his contract, it is understood that Fabio Capello could leave Juve for the Nerazzurri in the summer.
