Former Inter Milan goalkeeper Gianluca Pagliuca has paid tribute to the impact of coach Antonio Conte.

Pagliuca was speaking with Calcionews24.com.

He said, “Conte had a great impact, he came in strong and decisive as a great coach must do. I would have kept Nainggolan, he's one of those players that I would always put on the pitch, but regarding players like Perisic and Icardi who all left, I agree with him. He didn't want them and he was right, bringing in champions like Lukaku and other players who have done great things."

Pagliuca also warned Lautaro Martinez must stay with the Nerazzurri.

“If Inter want to win and try to have a season where they beat Juventus or Lazio for the title, Lautaro will be a decisive player and must stay. They can cash in and take another strong player like him, but it's always a risk."
