Inter was never close to bankruptcy. Their numbers have been growing year after year as Marotta explained last week. Their owner was but that doesn't exactly involve them. Napoli or Atalanta are healthy teams financially, we're not. Our income is much higher so if we spend correctly, we'll top them again sooner or later but our expenses were way higher and that was the main problem.
Kean, Alex Sandro, Chiesa, Pogba, Szczesny, Rabiot, De Sciglio, Kostic, Miretti, Huijsen, Soulé, Iling etc. Many players were ousted with the view of short and long term financial stability. Those guys brought in the cash directly or indirectly (drop in salaries) for the arrivals. We shrunk the squad big time and still only broke even... And many of them were deemed too expensive rather than simply not good enough...
Are Koop and Luiz playing up to their transfer sum standard? Well, obviously not... We've been bullied on both transfers.
