Tigre midfielder Ruben Botta excited about Inter Milan move

Tigre midfielder Ruben Botta is looking forward to his move to Inter Milan.

The 23-year-old Argentine was wanted by numerous top clubs in Europe, but has agreed a five-year contract with the Nerazzurri.

"My father Ismael was a player and now works as a Coach, so I started playing when I was very young at San Juan," the Tigre star told the Corriere dello Sport.

"I started out as a trequartista, because I always liked to 'create' something, or I can play as a support striker or out wide. I think I give my best in the final third, as I can unbalance opposition defences with my technique.

"I also consider myself a player who helps out his teammates a lot in winning back the ball. I became accustomed to it here at Tigre, where everyone has to sacrifice themselves for the good of the team."
