The legendary Roberto Baggio has admitted he is intrigued by the idea of working in some capacity for Inter.
Baggio recently revealed his desire to return to football and Nerazzurri chief Massimo Moratti was quick to offer him an opportunity with the Italian giants.
"I do miss football, especially playing the game," Baggio told Sky Italia after landing at Malpensa airport.
"I would like to return to the field of play, but I would need a new set of knees in order for that to happen.
"Inter? I know that Moratti has said that his door is always open and I thank him for that. I’ll now calmly evaluate what can be done."
Baggio has a splendid relationship with Moratti after spending two years at the San Siro between 1998 and 2000.
Although the No 10 wasn’t a regular fixture in the side, as a result of boss Marcello Lippi’s plans, the oil baron has great respect for the former Juventus ace.
"There will always be room for him at Inter," stated the Nerazzurri owner last Thursday.
"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."
It’s unclear at this stage what position Baggio could actually hold with the Italian giants.
The now 38-year-old had hinted that he would like to start a coaching career, but that would seemingly be hard to fulfil at Inter.
The former Golden Ball winner has been away from the game since retiring as a player at Brescia in the summer of 2004.
