Inter president Steven Zhang told the club's official website: "The pandemic has hit people all over the world with great force.

"The great commitment of all healthcare workers has been essential to now allow us to look to the future.

"With this initiative we want to thank them and celebrate their work and at the same time send a message of unity and solidarity between nations."
