Inter chief Massimo Moratti has opened the door for Roberto Baggio to fulfil his ambition of returning to the game.
The legendary figure this morning confirmed that he wants to get back into the football world and Moratti is ready to make that happen.
"There will always be room for him at Inter," stated the Nerazzurri owner on Thursday evening.
"It is only normal and logical for a person like him. We would be honoured if he came here. We would decide together on what role he would take up."
Baggio has a splendid relationship with Moratti after spending two years at the San Siro between 1998 and 2000, even if he wasn’t a big hit with then boss Marcello Lippi.
The Azzurri great did suggest that he was looking for a coaching role, but Moratti is unlikely to offer him Roberto Mancini’s job.
Despite the 3-2 loss at Palermo on Saturday, Moratti still has great confidence in the ex-Samp man following the 1-0 win against Artmedia on Tuesday.
"We put in a good response after our knock out at Palermo and that wasn’t easy," continued the oil baron.
"It was a tough game psychologically, but I am satisfied even if we did have to struggle right until the very end.
"I didn’t like much after Palermo but the side continues to work seriously and I like that a lot.
"I’m convinced that we have some good material to work with here and therefore we can do well."
