Inter Milan forward Pablo Osvaldo determined to "punish" Celtic

Inter Milan striker Pablo Osvaldo says that he will "punish" Celtic if their fans antagonise him in their last-32 Europa League tie.

Inter Milan forward Pablo Osvaldo has vowed to punish Celtic at Parkhead in their Europa League tie in February.

Roberto Mancini's side were paired with the Scottish champions in the last 32 of the tournament earlier this week.

Much has been made over the Bhoys' famous support at Parkhead on European nights, but the Argentine striker says that he will happily silence the hosts' partisan crowd if necessary.

"They talk about their famous atmosphere but it will not intimidate me. If the Celtic fans make it hostile then I will feed off that – and will punish them," he told the Daily Record.

"Celtic are a big club, but I am sure that we will progress. The first game is in Scotland but we will be looking to win. We want to go back to Italy with the game won and that is possible.

"They will have qualities that we need to look out for, but we believe that we are the superior team."

The first leg takes place in Glasgow on February 19, before Ronny Deila's side travel to San Siro for the conclusion a week later.
