Inter Milan winger Antonio Candreva is thrilled with football's return.

Inter will resume with the second-leg of their Coppa Italia semifinal against Napoli trailing 1-0 on aggregate.

"We are almost there… and we can't wait," Candreva said on Instagram.

“The green carpet, the teammates, the emotions that only sport gives us.

“We hope to give ease and bring smiles to all our fans after this period of suffering and difficulty for the whole country."

That also has ramifications for the January window, with the winter market now reopening for business on January 4, before a deadline of January 31.
