Wingback Luis Henrique says that he has “always dreamed of playing for Inter Milan” after his summer move.

The Brazilian gave his thoughts in the matchday programme for today’s Serie A clash with Udinese.

Brazilian winger Luis Henrique has now been an Inter player for a few months.

The Nerazzurri signed Henrique from Marseille at the start of the summer. They had in fact been negotiating a deal to bring him in since the spring.

The 23-year-old is a player who Inter identified as an ideal backup to Denzel Dumfries at right-wingback.

Furthermore, Henrique is a player who can give Inter greater tactical versatility.

The Brazilian’s speed and dribbling ability give him a bit of a different profile to a player like Dumfries. And even potentially the ability to play in other positions than at wingback.

This could be particularly important since Inter are working under a new coach. Cristian Chivu replaced Simone Inzaghi after the latter left for the big money offer of Al-Hilal.

Luis Henrique: “Always Dreamed Of Playing For Inter Milan”

Luis Henrique commented that playing for Inter is a “dream come true” for him.

The 23-year-old described the Nerazzurri as a “top team, and one I’ve always dreamed of playing for.”

“So coming here and being able to play in the biggest competitions is a dream come true.”

Meanwhile, Henrique said that the question of what quality he would most like to take from a teammate is “difficult to answer.”

“But I’d probably have to say Lautaro’s finishing ability,” the Brazilian said.

“I’m proud of knowing I can help the team in different ways,” Henrique stated.

“Both by pressing opponents and in attack.”

“From this perspective, I feel I’ve matured a lot since I started.”
