GOLNOIR
ADRIANO INTER MILANN
It's back to where it all began for Adriano. After being sold by Inter and making his mark in the
quiet but soccer mad town of Parma, the young Brazillian with a bright future is back in Milan.
Adriano came up through the Flamingo system where he quickly established himself as a solid goal scorer, bagging double digits as a 17 year old in Brazil's top division and scoring 6 times during Brazil's Under 20 tournament run.
He was sold to Inter Milan in 2001. He received little playing time with Inter and with Fiorentina before getting his chance with Parma.
Adriano repaid the faith shown in him by the Yellow and Blue with his first double digit season in European football which garnered much attention from other squads.
However, Adriano stated his desire to stay with Parma, the team that gave him his shot.
All seemed fine until a financing scandal rocked Parma's parent company and the club began selling players to raise cash.
Now Inter is glad to have him back as he has shown that he will be a major factor in any championship aspirations they have.
