Mercato Team (Ausilio, Marotta, & Co.) and Strategies

Ever since we forcefully pulled Lukaku transfer, everything went downhill from there particularly financially.

Fine. I don’t mind if we don’t sign anyone but at least keep our core players. Be fucking for real now.

Ah yes, back to the tomasso rocchi and Hussein Kharja days. Bargain barrel boys are back baby!

I have no optimism at all for the future of this club. We are absolutely skint and don't see how we change that

here are some strategies;

Give chances to our youth

Sign a new Italian core

Sign new Argentine core

Bring in new young talents from all continents

2023 transfer out: st lukaku, mid gags, cb de vrij

in: (free transfer) st thuram, mid daichi kamada, cb ndicka

would rate this mercato A if marotta can do this

2023 summer changes

Handanovic is probably out. We're looking for another goalkeeper, perhaps were going for someone at a similar annual cost .

De Vrij is expiring. We will offer a new deal at the same rate iirc.

d'Ambrosio is expiring. He will get an extension at around 50% of his current deal.

Dzeko is likely to extend at a discount.

Lukaku hopefully won't return. That's 12m per year.

Gagliardini is leaving unless we go mental. Another 4m freed up.

Dalbert hopefully leaves as well. Frees around 2m.

I'm going to assume that both Bellanova and Asllani are staying.
Also going to assume that we keep Acerbi.

Then we have the major screw up with Skriniar who may leave on a free. Assuming he stays, his pay rise will essentially cancel out Gagliardini's exit.

So effectively we free up around 25m for several roster spots that could potentially rise to slightly north of 30m if we don't extend Skriniar.
And you'd still be looking for a starting striker, starting center back, or even two and 2 central midfielders. At the very least.

And that's with the assumption that the salary budget remains intact.

I mean regardless of where they are from we should be using youth players and giving them shots. We turn the Uruguayan kid into crap yet?

I get we wasted 30 million on Correa but stop trying to make him better and giving his chances if he sucks. Sell him for 5-10 and call it a day. call back one of those other strikers as our 4th choice.

2023
We are Set
- GK we have maybe we can get another young promising keeper to challenge him
- 3 in the back please god lets not lose Skriniar for free over .5 to 1 million. That is just idiotic. We keep him and we have 2 very good CBs with 5+ years left in them + Acerbi/D'am will stay. We just need to see if we can promote a youth player to change for the starting role.
- 3 starting CMs are good if we keep them + promote a youth player

Need upgrade desperately
- wingbacks are not good enough to challenge for the league or champions this needs to be addressed
- Strikers only player we really trust is fking 37......
- we have absolutely no bench


So let everyone who isn't a youth player packing that is free to leave. Use that money to get another striker.


or Sell Martinez and use it to reinforce the team to be more than 4 good players in Barella, Bastoni, Brozo and Skriniar.

---------Onana(New goalie/Handa)-------
------Bastoni ----New CB/Acerbi----Skriniar*
Di Marco/New WB -----------------------------New WB/Darmian
------Mkhit/Calhan---Brozo/Calhan-----Barella
-----New CF---------------New CF/Dzeko

Use Dumfries, Lautaro money to buy new strikers and someone to bench Darmian, Di Marco and Acerbi + have an actual bench


This team can hopefully keep us in champions league next year and get out of group stage. You can say its weak but so was Milans champion team last season

3-5-1-1 system, might be a solution for us financially?

We could use Dzeko/Lautaro and Mkhitaryan/Correa as sopporter strikers. Dzeko with lower wages.

I hope we don’t renew Lukaku loan. That would give us massive savings.

Thuram and other striker are going to PL with big wages.

Getting Kamada for free to replace Gags would be great. Kessie and Frattesi might also happen if we get one of them for loan?

There is also option to bring back Fabbian and we would save few million on wages. Fabbian is having a decent season at Reggina and would be good replacement to Gags.

———————Mkhitaryan/Correa
Hakan/Carboni—————————Barella/Kamada/Fabbian
————————Brozovic/Asllani

Dumfries and Gosens might leave next summer?

Getting rid of Gosens payments next summer and replace him for free player (Bensebaini) would be good busines (I assume wages are similar, maybe little lower?)

After Dumfries sale, Mazraoui would be really good, but in reality Mazzocchi will be in our budget. This move we would make handsome profits and savings on wages. Singo is also one option.

Darmian is also likely to renew and we could again see some wage savings?

De Vrij will most likely to drag his renewal decision till summer as he want to see can he get bigger offer on PL? But we might see De Vrij renew with lower wages.

Maybe getting Caglar Soyuncu for free with lower wages than De Vrij would be better option than renew De Vrij?

I would try to sell Skriniar if he will not renew? We could try to find cheap loan Tomiyasu, Davinson Sanchez to replace him and make some wage savings?

Scalvini would be possible if we manage to sell Skriniar €20-25m. We might include some youth players to this deal to lower fee? But yeah Scalvini would drop our wages again.

Danilo might also renew with half of wages?

Bastoni might get a new deal around €4-4,5m? So that would be increase.

Replacing Handa with someone like Cragno would also save us wages.

So we might see good ammount of profits and wage savings next summer. Leaving players like Lukaku, Gags, Gosens, De Vrij, Handa have had little impact to our current season and are not that hard to replace as there are in my opinion better or similar players for free and lower wages available. Skriniar is painful but not impossible to replace and who knows maybe he stay?

Davison Sanchez went to total shit after his 1st season at Tottenham. Was awesome as PSV but I'd stay away from him.

I am shocked... also LOL at considering Dumbass as a top player.

Ahhh, Inter back in the day you were fucking all the bad bitches. Surrounded by pretty hoe's.
Now we are the Larry Holmes of football. Old, flabby and sick. Time to be give it up and fold the club.

Just gets worse every year.

I got halfway through that second line and felt compelled to holler "Big eat a fat dick!"...

If there’s a club fool enough to to pay 40mil€ of Backpassfries then sure, go for it. Get Singo for free replacement, eventhough he hasn’t been setting the league alight statswise at least…

I read now a 12-month extension for Gagliardini isn't out of question.

AFAIK Gags salary is less than 2m net. So not a big freed up gross salary but at least something.

Getting rid of Gagliardini is more of a spiritual cleanup than financial.

Whatever Gagliardini is on he's not worth it, he's absolutely awful.

What I have seen Sanchez at Spurs he has had some really good games and some bad games, jus like our current defenders De Vrij, Bastoni and even Skriniar. But he would come cheaper wages.

I would like to see one cb who is faster and more athletic than our current ones.

Yup. We need to add some pace to the backline. Moving Skriniar centrally and signing a fast RCB would be the simple solution.

I'm sure we'll instead renew de Vrij, let Skriniar walk, and sign Smalling.
