Lúcio, 33, and Maicon, 30, have received criticism for some of their performances this season, with many observers believing that the pair are starting to show their age.
At a press conference on Tuesday, though, Stramaccioni was defient over his star’s performance levels: “The performances of Lucio, Maicon and Sneijder prove they aren’t finished.”
Despite their poor season, Internazionale still have a chance of qualification for next season’s Champions League, lying in 5th spot overall.
