Diego Godin was convinced to sign a contract with Inter by their ambitious sporting project .
The Nerazzurri have not won a trophy since 2011 as Juventus have enjoyed an incredible period of dominance in Italy.
But Godin is convinced the good times will return to Inter, having signed a three-year deal after his contract with Atletico Madrid expired.
The 33-year-old Uruguay international spent nine years at Atletico, helping them to LaLiga glory in 2013-14 and a pair of Europa League titles.
