According to the latest news brought by the British media The Sun, negotiations on the sale of Inter Milan have come to an end. After declining interest in the Saudi consortium, Inter has focused on other buyers. At present, three capitals have approached the top management of Inter Milan, hoping to buy the team in the future. They are the Ares consortium in the United States, Hyfen Capital Management in the United Kingdom, and Sixth Street Partners.
It is reported that after successfully applying for a new loan from the London fund, Inter Milan has temporarily settled the problem of arrears from Oaktree Capital. And after disposing of the expiring debt, Inter also has more confidence to raise the price when selling. On this basis, the Saudi consortium, which had originally tried to buy Inter Milan, was still unhappy with the offer of 1.2 billion euros, and in the end the two sides could not reach an agreement. At present, their interest in acquisition has weakened a lot, and it is likely that they will exit next.
However, the Nerazzurri are not short of buyers, and the three new capitals immediately contacted the Inter hierarchy in the hope of negotiating a takeover. For Inter Milan, more is what they want to see. Because it means that their selling price can be guaranteed. If there is only one actual buyer, it will be difficult for Inter to get the numbers they want. But the three Inter have the capital and confidence to negotiate. At present, the Nerazzurri are still biting the price of 1.2 billion euros, as long as the next family is willing to pay this price, then the century-old giants can immediately change to a new owner.
According to The Sun, Ares Capital is currently the closest consortium to buy Inter, as they have raised their offer to 1.15 billion euros in the new round. As long as there are no higher offers from the other two, then the Inter hierarchy will have to sell the club to them at this price. To some extent, the price of 1.15 billion euros is quite appropriate. After all, Inter Milan only disposed of their temporary debts after getting a new loan. The new boss will inevitably have to repay the money in the future, but he has more time.
Therefore, it is already impossible to continue to raise prices, and 1.2 billion euros is the limit. 1.15 billion euros is also completely acceptable to the Inter management. According to the normal situation, Inter Milan is likely to be acquired by a consortium from the United States in the future. For the Nerazzurri, a new era is on the horizon. To a certain extent, under the high-level governance of Inter led by Zhang Kangyang, Inter Milan has taken a few key steps on the road to rejuvenation. They have had a very good run in recent seasons, both in terms of the number of titles they have won and the strength of their current squad to the satisfaction of the fans.
It is no exaggeration to say that Inter Milan is the strongest club in Serie A at this stage, and there is even a big gap between the second place and them. A win over Milan in the next round this season will seal the league title early. From the perspective of fans, Inter Milan's development in recent years has far exceeded expectations, and it can even be said that it has done quite well. But the current top management is under great financial pressure after all, so selling the team is also a last resort. It is worth mentioning that the Ares consortium promised the Inter management that they would increase their investment in each transfer window after they took over the team. And the current squad will be retained, and the team will not have the phenomenon of poaching players due to financial pressure. For Inter fans, that's what they'd like to see.
At least the team is still on the right track, so the team's results can still be guaranteed for the next few seasons. Since Suning acquired Inter in 2016, the team has won 6 titles in recent years, and the results in the same period are indeed outstanding. As long as they win the league title smoothly, then the period of time they take over the team will be seven crowns, and I wonder if the new owner will be able to break this record in the future. What do you think about this?
