Market in progress at Inter after the change of ownership between Zhang and Oaktree. A negotiation stuck at the best moment.
The story of really strange Steven Zhangone of the most loved presidents in recent years by the Inter fans who paid homage to him with chants and banners in the last season at San Siro, forced to sell the club to Oaktree.
Everything seemed to be done for the solution to the loan problem, another loan on the horizon, of short duration and on better conditions with Pimpco, which withdrew at the best moment and left Zhang empty-handed, forced to pass the club to the American fund for the failure to repay the loan of 275 million (for 2021) which with interest reached 375 million.
No friendly solution, no alternatives and no miracles: Suning leavesthe new ownership is Oaktree, which on the one hand has reassured everyone about the future of Inter, on the other it leaves it a bit of a mystery, because no one can know how it will operate, not so much now, but in the near future.
Suning leaves a solid management structure, with level management under contract until 2027, the top-ranking squad, an ambitious program to excel in Europe too, can remember this very positive experience by thinking of the trophies won, a little less as a market operation. Now it’s Oaktree’s turn.
The about-face
Marotta will have to deal with Oaktree, but also with an (always sustainable) market in progress. So, if yesterday Alexander Good morning it was an important transfer target to extend the squad available to Simone Inzaghi, now who knows. The timing is different, a plausible about-face is inevitable.
The advent of Oaktree, in fact, will bring days (perhaps a few weeks) of immobility on the market side. There are some priorityFurthermore, like the renewal of Inzaghi, Barella and Lautaro Martinez, Inter could slip away or be overtaken in the race for one of the best defenders in Serie A.
The scenery
Good morning, then, I’m interested and quite a bit Milan, who tried to take him already in January, colliding with the wall erected by Urbano Cairo. The Turin president could negotiate in June, so the Rossoneri could accelerate compared to Inter. Not only.
There is also Napoli, which is about to dissolve the trainer knot (Gasp on pole, Pioli and Conte a step below but with negotiations still open, as well as De Zerbi with whom there was a phone call) and he too could have the strength to tighten the deadlines and grab a player in hype, capable to also bewitch the technical commissioner of the national team, Luciano Spalletti. Inter, at least in the short term, cannot do anything.
