Inter Milan midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu said that the Nerrazuri's will try to do everything within their powers to destroy Manchester City's game plan, when both teams square up later today (May 10th).
The Italian giants will face a star-studded Pep Guardiola's City side in the final of the 2022-23 UEFA Champions League at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey.
The Nerrazuris head into the crunch final as outright underdogs, judging by the pedigree of Manchester City, who themselves have been quite impressive in the competition this season.
Guardiola's side is currently in search of their third title of the 2022-23 football season, having already picked up a domestic double, with the Premier League and FA Cup in the bag.
Their second-leg semi-final 4-1 trashing of Spanish giants Real Madrid last month strengthed their hopes of emerging champions of Europe this season.
However, the major stumbling block for the Citizens would be Inter Milan, who themselves already relish the chances of winning a third Champions League crown.
One of Inter's star players, Calhanoglu, has already expressed his side's determination to go all out and stop Manchester City later tonight in the final.
The Turkish international revealed that his side have done their research on Guardiola's team and they are much prepared to destroy whatever gameplan the Spanish tactician will be rolling out in the final.
In his words, as reported by the Daily Mail, he said,
"We’ve done some analysis and it’s important for us to play our own game. Playing with no fear is very important for us. They will force themselves and play very offensively."
He continued:
"We’re going to show them what we are made of. We’ve dominated games and I hope we can go and destroy their gameplan."
It's left to be seen as to whether or not Inter Milan will be able to stop the fire power of Manchester City, when they both square up later tonight at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium.
