Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte has sung the praises of Parma attacker Gervinho.

Gervinho has spoken of Inter making an attempt for him last summer.

“I'm not talking about players who are in other teams," Conte said at a press conference.

“He's an excellent player and is doing very good things, but I have great respect for Parma, for its players and above all for my own players.

“I'm happy with the players I have. I'm not thinking about January, February or March, but about the match tomorrow."
