This was announced by Inter Milan in a statement saying, “Eto’o lifted the Scudetto, Coppa Italia and Champions League with the club before notching a brace in an Italian Super Cup success.”
Elated with the club’s induction, Eto’o wrote: “Hall of fame Thank you Inter family for inviting me back to San Siro to celebrate this incredible recognition. So great to be reunited with old teammates.”
Commenting on the induction of the Cameroonian legend, Inter Milan said, he “left his mark” at the club and that, the club “reminiscent of the way Milito and Eto’o exchanged passes en route to treble glory in 2010.”
Inter further stated that, “The magic from that glorious team is very much alive and kicking over a decade later, as shown by the fans choosing a third player from that era to be inducted into the Inter Hall of Fame.”
“After joining the club in summer 2009, Eto’o announced himself with a goal in the Italian Super Cup against Lazio in China that ultimately proved to be worthless. That was the first of his 53 goals in 102 appearances, during which the team racked up a stunning haul of no fewer than six trophies.”
