Basically get rid of Antonelli and put in Darmian, Marchisio and Verratti and that team might have had a cat in hell's chance.
It's insane how much weaker the Azzurri look without Verratti imo. Obviously Marchisio is one hell of a player (and underrated outside Italy), but Verratti is their superstar right now imo.

Inter will be sold over the weekend, Thohir and the whole Inter management including Zanetti will travel to China on Saturday, announcement could come already on Monday. Both Thohir and Moratti have today confirmed the selling.

The signing of Milan being sold to a different chinese consortium is supposed to arrive on the 15th of this month, the club will then be owned by a fund that will be owned by 6-7 chinese corporations/individuals like Evergrande* and Robin Li (founder of the chinese equivalent of google), if of course the rumours are true. The Milan deal isn't certain since it involves Berlusconi, so the italian media - unlike with Inter - is still very cautious.

Will it benefit them ?

All thohir did was stagnating inter
Moratti had to pour over a billion euros into that club on top of murdering all their opposition in 2006 to make them have any success. Deep down, they will always be Inter.

Not sure the Chinese will understand much about European football either. Predicting a lot of wasted money on retarded footballers.

and when the results won't come, the two scumbag clubs become one single milano fc, which relegates shortly after the fusion :xfinger:

Certainly it will help them to be better in shape economically. Inter owns Goldman Sachs about 220m that have to be payed back until 2019, part of the agreement between Thohir and the chinese is that Suning pays those 220m back. Further 180m will go into the coffers of Moratti and Thohir, divided by the size of their share.

On the field though it's still reported that Inter has to sell before they can buy because of the agreement they have with Uefa. So no fresh resources for this transfer window, after that the new owners could find a new agreement with Uefa, that possibly allows more investments as part of a new business plan. There is some leeway for new owners in regards to FFP if you present a business plan to Uefa that seems feasible.

The other way to circumvent FFP are fake or inflated sponsorship the way PSG does it. PSG makes about 330m from sponsorships, more than anyone else in the world, without them their revenue would be less than Roma's. Totally fake, nothing you could get on a free market basis, but Uefa allows it.

Interesting.


Since Inter & Milan are out of CL, they don't really have to honor FFP, right? Is the rule cover ALL European competitions or just CL?

Clubs in the EL still have to comply with FFP. Also, I think the league is going to start implementing similar rules to prevent clubs from running into huge debt

It covers all UEFA competitions.

It also covers a period of three years, so it could present problems in next seasons if they somehow manage to get there too.

Good post. But they are also the owners of Suning FC, so they can send Alex Texeira for free to Inter? That would be a good signing, especially for 'free'.

They need a complete restructuring of the whole organization. We have just seen the difference in Juve's performance under three different regimes in the last 2 decades. The good management of Moggi's regime led to a great Juve and the stark contrast is in Secco and gigli's regime before we got back to having proper management again with Agnelli and the others. When we had proper management we prospered and when we had poor management we were like the Milan clubs are now.

Inter and Milan do not just need money, they need proper management working behind the scenes. We know from Juve's experience how far good management goes in creating a proper team. Proper management translates to efficient use of the money in terms of purchases and salaries. It translates in terms of the discipline and mood around the club. It translates in terms of scouting results and coach hiring. It translates in terms of player performances and loyalty and into a healthy relationship between club, players and fans. The EPL today is a demonstration of how mismanaged money can still take you nowhere on the pitch.

Lets hope the Chinese can properly manage the Milan clubs and bring them back to where they used to be. Otherwise the financial gap between us and the rich boys of Europe will grow too large.
