Inter Milan chief Marco Branca admits they're holding back from plunging into the summer market.
Inter are expected to overhaul their squad after a dismal campaign.
"It's too soon to talk about our approach or mention names, our first target is to be competitive again," Branca said.
"So no, we need a little patience. We are currently in the preliminary stage, so just a little patience.
"But, it is crucial to be competitive again.
"Does the criticism bother me? No. I always accept the criticism."
