The 35-year-old joined Inter Milan on a free transfer, with under €2 million in bonuses payable if the Nerazzurri qualify for the Champions League.
Dzeko scored the last goal in Inter's 4-0 Serie A victory over Genoa at San Siro last weekend.
And being happy with his first game for the reigning Serie A champions, the former AS Roma player stressed;
“It was an emotional day, especially as it was the first game with fans back in the stadium,” Dzeko told Inter TV.
“My mother was at San Siro too. It was an important day, ending with our victory and a goal that I worked really hard for. I hadn’t scored in a long time in Serie A, so it was important to break that drought and boost my confidence for the future.
“I feel like I’ve been playing here for years, I get along really well with my teammates and we work together smoothly. That’s because there are many champions here who know how to play football, that’s why I came to Inter."
Dzeko also believes Simone Inzaghi as the boss for Inter Milan was one of the main reason he joined the Nerazzurri.
“I was nervous before the Genoa game and frankly that was unusual for me. I’d been at San Siro many times as an opponent, so I almost went into the wrong dressing room and Ivan Perisic redirected me.
“I heard many great things about Inzaghi from the players who worked with him. I saw the way Lazio played and was certain he’d be perfectly suited to me.”
