From last season to this season, Inter has a serious deficit, the behind-the-scenes investors are unable to inject real money and silver into the team for various reasons, and the so-called "oil daddy" buyers are no shadow, so the team's finances are difficult, once the capital chain was broken, resulting in unpaid wages, and once lost a number of main players and experienced a change of coach, the difficulties faced have been very large.
But during the difficult period, the team's performance has been good.
On the one hand, the reason is that Inter has gathered a group of good business backbones: they have experience, responsibility, constant surprise, team spirit, and they are also "workaholic" and extremely diligent.
Conte Marotta is a workaholic, Inzaghi Jr. and his coaching staff are also workaholic, and there are many particularly hard-working and dedicated players in the team, from the main players such as Perisic and Lautaro to the substitutes such as Ranocchia, D'Ambrosio and Damian.
For example: last summer, Inter suffered a major change, Conte hung up the seal, the team lost Ashraf, Lukaku, Eriksen and other main forces in a short period of time, the Chinese and foreign media viciously speculated that Inter was about to disband, die-hard fans ran to demonstrate, the team was worried about external troubles, and it was difficult to change a weak helmsmanship.
But Marotta has shown his talent for extreme operations: here to finalize new managers and new signings, there to bargain with buyers to sell Lukaku for a high price that makes the rich Premier League smell good, while negotiating contract extensions with Bastoni and others, helping the new manager settle down, and even having time to face the North Stand to appease the fans.
In the process, it is not only his experience, experience, calmness and responsibility that are displayed.
This is impossible without the word diligence.
Inter manager Osilio is also a hard-working man.
Italian media commentator Aalobic compared him to "Dan Brossio in the manager's position", with mediocre talent and qualifications, and no great background, but because he worked hard enough and was diligent enough, he was quite accomplished.
For example, in that year, Tohill signed an "understanding agreement" with the UEFA FFP agency for many years, resulting in Suning's early accession to Inter, direct financial support, but it was suppressed and tied. Osilio spent a lot of energy delving into the terms, lobbying many parties, and was able to bring in "account guards" such as Shkrinjar and Bastoni, reducing UEFA penalties.
These deals, which did not cost much cash, were also the cornerstone of Inter's victory.
Inter managers often proudly say: When it comes to dealing with FFP, I am an expert in Europe!
Not long ago, Osilio visited Spain, so the European media concocted many transfer rumors, such as Lauta Roma, such as Ceballos, Jovic and so on.
But experts point out that this is Ossie's daily routine.
He went to Spain to contact and communicate with various broker companies. He often ran everywhere on weekdays, to Turin Genoa, to Venice sardinia, to England, Germany and Portugal, all of which were commonplace.
He and his team's "small book" monitors hundreds of European players at any time, and it is his daily job to contact various agents and companies.
The reason is simple: Inter don't have any money now, and reinforcements depend on seizing opportunities. Where does the opportunity come from? The more players you observe and the more agents you contact, the easier it is to find that cost-effective opportunity.
It's not easy, the workload is heavy, it's fine and heavy, and a lot of it can be useless. But he did a solid job.
Diligence is the foundation of everything.
According to French Football, The Inter manager's team recently went not only to Spain, but also to France, and In the last round of Lyon's 1-2 defeat to Brest, Ossi's assistant Bachin was in the stands.
It is reported that in addition to the daily affairs of Bächin's trip, it is also for Inter to loan two players from Brest: Agome and Satriano.
This is part of Inter's "60 million plan".
For example, Biasin, Di Marzio, Romano and others have pointed out that Inter need to make tens of millions of euros through transfers in the summer to cope with the fiscal deficit.
Inter's Plan A is to complete the mission without selling the absolute main force.
How to put together these tens of millions?
Experts pointed out that Inter want Dalbert to sell for 4-5 million (Cagliari 7 million buyout clause, Inter is ready for discount). Pirolla sold for $8 million (if Monza were upgraded, the two sides would negotiate a buyout). Pinamonti's list price is $18 million (of course, it may also be a voucher for other transactions). In addition, there are some other new stars on loan, and the price of individual players is not high, but it may also be exchanged for some funds.
The two most important of these are Agome and Satriano.
The former is currently the acquisition target for Lyon. The latter agent is in contact with Lille and some teams in the Premier League.
Inter have each priced the two players for 15 million euros and sold them if any team can meet the offer.
That's Inter's $60 million plan. Although this may lead to the "Zaniolo tragedy", Inter's financial difficulties are now helpless.
The Inter manager's trip to France is pushing the matter forward.
The current situation is that Agome, Satriano and Pirolla, the little-known and small roles, are important pawns in Inter's strategic plan today. If their problems can be solved perfectly, then Inter may be more likely to leave stars such as Lautaro and Barrera.
