Inter chief executive Giuseppe Marotta said he is "optimistic about everything" amid the club's ongoing battle to sign Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku.
Lukaku revealed that he expects an update on his future next week as Inter try to prise the Belgium star from Old Trafford, where Marcus Rashford has become Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's first-choice striker.
Antonio Conte's Inter have made no secret of their interest in the 26-year-old, but the Serie A side's reported offer of €70 million (£63m/$79m) – comprising of a two-year loan and a €60m obligation to buy – has apparently fallen short of United's €83m (£75m/$94m) asking price.
