Manuel Akanji left Manchester City to join Inter Milan on a season-long loan in the final hours of the summer transfer window.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the 30-year-old has set the highest goals for the new season.

Three years after swapping Borussia Dortmund for the Etihad Stadium, Akanji moves to Serie A to team up with Inter.

However, his ambitions remain unchanged.

Indeed, Manuel Akanji has gotten used to winning trophies in Manchester and hopes to continue in the same vein at San Siro.

One of Akanji’s priorities is to win the Champions League with the Nerazzurri.

Moreover, the Swiss center-back made that clear in his first interview as an Inter player.

Interestingly, he was part of Man City’s squad that beat Inter in the 2023 Champions League final in Istanbul.

While the Cityzens have since struggled in Europe, Inter reached another showpiece last season.

However, Paris Saint-Germain thumped Simone Inzaghi’s side in the title-deciding fixture.

Meanwhile, Akanji hopes to help the Nerazzurri go one better this term.
