Tuttosport commends Tajon Buchanan of Canada for his remarkable debut with Inter on Friday, highlighting his dynamic approach, speed, and fearless style of play.

Buchanan became Inter’s sole acquisition during the January transfer window, securing a permanent move from Club Brugge.

Initially benched for several matches, Buchanan entered the fray as a substitute during Inter’s commanding 4-0 victory over Salernitana, marking his Serie A debut with approximately 15 minutes of playtime.

Journalist Simone Togna, in Tuttosport’s Sunday edition, lauded Buchanan’s performance at San Siro, emphasizing his spirited play, pace, and unwavering commitment on the field.

Reportedly, Buchanan’s physical prowess impressed Inter’s coaching staff immediately. However, manager Inzaghi opted to wait a few weeks before granting him his debut, considering Buchanan’s last competitive match dated back to December 10, 2023, allowing him time to adjust to Inter’s tactical approach.

Following his debut, Buchanan expressed his elation in an interview with Inter’s official website, describing the experience as a dream come true. He expressed his readiness to contribute further, highlighting his versatility across various positions and his eagerness to support the team in any capacity. Buchanan also credited the team’s support in helping him adapt to Inter’s style since his arrival, expressing his gratitude for the warm welcome extended by the staff and his teammates.
