Inter Milan boss Conte delighted with Lukaku, Martinez for Bologna win

Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte was pleased with two-goal Romelu Lukaku after their 2-1 defeat of Bologna.

Conte is happy with the way Lukaku is working with Lautaro Martinez.

He said, "I had studied Lautaro a little before coming here. He is a centre-forward, but at the same time also a second striker, so he's atypical.

“Lukaku is an unusual striker too, because he has this physicality of a centre-forward, but if you give him space to run into, he is devastatingly fast.

“I above all am happy with the work they are doing off the ball. Behind them, we have Sebastiano Esposito, who might just be 17 years old, but trust me, if he continues with this humility then he can have a great future."
