Inter Milan defender Yuto Nagatomo is adamant his side can mount a title challenge in Serie A this season.
Andrea Stramaccioni s men sit fourth in Italy, four points behind leaders Juventus, and the Japanese full-back insists the title is within reach.
It s a good time, things are going well and I m happy, the 26-year-old told Tuttosport.
We are here to win the Scudetto, the whole team is focused on this goal.
The 2010 Champions League winners recently recorded a 1-0 derby victory over rivals Milan, in a match which saw Antonio Cassano come up against his old side.
Nagatomo revealed he had an excellent rapport with the Italy international, who has been teasing him for his first-half red card.
I still do not understand why the referee (sent me off). I struggle to understand the decision, but I m used to respecting the decisions of the referee, the defender said.
Cassano teased me about that card. Antonio is my best friend at Inter, I enjoy playing with him.
Inter will resume their Serie A campaign when they welcome Catania to the San Siro on October 21.
