Former Juventus coach Giovanni Trapattoni is impressed by Inter Milan's summer market work.
But he maintains that Juve remain title favourites.
“[Inter's] path is the right one," Trapattoni told FCInterNews.
“[Coach Roberto] Mancini is extremely knowledgeable and has international experience. It's not easy for the team to settle with so many new buys, but I'm sure Inter will do it well.
“You need time for players to settle in, and get used to the instructions from the Coach. The squad is already good, they just have to work on conviction.
“Inter have international players, I don't see why they'd be behind the others. I think all this group is lacking is a 'jump', a little confidence-booster.
“The Scudetto? The others are strengthening, but Juventus are still in pole position. Milan and Inter are right behind, though Roma, Napoli and Lazio are good teams and can compete."
