What happened. Andy Diouf has expressed his desire to return to central midfield, stating he doesn't feel like a wing-back despite impressing in the role for Inter. He remains committed to doing whatever coach Cristian Chivu asks of him.

• Diouf joined Inter in summer 2025 but struggled for midfield minutes.
• He has filled in at right wing-back after Denzel Dumfries left for Real Madrid.
• Summer signing Djed Spence is yet to make his Inter debut.

“I don't feel like a full-back or a winger. My goal is to return to playing in midfield.”

— Andy Diouf

Diouf's long-term aim is to reclaim a central midfield spot, but he'll continue to help the team wherever needed.
