Fiorentina's Melo pleased with Inter Milan interest

Fiorentina midfielder Felipe Melo admits he's pleased with interest from Inter Milan.

"I don't want to talk about the transfer market any more," he told the Gazzetta dello Sport.

"It's a good life in Florence and there is a Brazilian style of enthusiasm. We are not so far from Juventus and Milan, as only Inter proved themselves to be from another planet.

"I read that there was tension in the locker room, but it's not true. Fiorentina have a great squad and team spirit.

"I will always keep in my heart the celebrations after we secured Champions League qualification."

However, Melo admits he is considering a switch to San Siro after receiving interest from the Nerazzurri.

"I am crazy about Mourinho, he is the best and his exceptional CV shows that. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is also a champion."
