We cannot afford to make too many changes as the team won't clicking instantly with too many new faces. Lukaku and Correa are out, so it is good the keep Dzeko for one more season. You are right that his decline is not only physical, but he would be great as a back up player. His ability to win areal duels, to keep and distribute tha ball could be important in last 15 minutes when everyone is out of steam. The problem is that Inzaghi sees him as a starter.
the time has come after all to change all personnel at the squad. regarding inter ambitions to get scudetto and every italian competition every season, the club should and must upgrade qualities of the personnel at all departments.

Gazzetta claim there's an agreement with Dzeko for one year extension at 5m (slightly lower than his current one) and now it's up to Zhang.
Would be bit of a disappointment for sure. Again, I guess understandable if we let Lukaku go and loan Correa out. Too many changed all over the lineup is not good either.

However, having Dzeko as 3rd-4th striker with 5m net salary (no tax reduction) doesn't exactly feel like a good allocation of resources. Let's see, depends on the other two forwards we gonna (hopefully) get.

Extending Dzeko at 5m would basically rule out signing two forwards. Not enough money. It would basically be a repeat of last summer when we were waiting for Correa to fuck off so we can sign Dybala. Once again we would count on offloading Correa which is going to be very difficult.

We can, and we should. What exactly happens if we make too many changes? Lose 10 matches instead of 9 same time next season?
We had to make the required changes when the time was right. Now this hesitancy must not become an excuse to delay the changes even further.

Dzeko can stay for one more season if Zhangs don't fuck off, but not for 5m.

I dont know if idiots that manage our club watch our games. Last season he was great first 6 months, this season he was great 2-3 months and absolutely dogshit for the rest of season. And next season it will get worse than that cause he is just too fucking old. I am totally against his renewal. Enough already.

If we lose 10 games, we can already be out of top 4 fight, depends of the competition. This season is still not a disaster, because Jube are -15 and the rest are inconsistent as we are. Dzeko 5 mln for one season is not a problem at all, because a such player is needed anyway (unless we change the formation). The other option is to stay with 3 attackers, 2 of which will be new, or to get Satriano as back up and to ruin his development. This is too risky.

Edin #Dzeko has agreed to renew his contract for one more season with Inter. ⚫🔵

His salary will be lowered to €5M a year, according to Gazzetta dello sport.
Not the best source, but could be a true.

We're the only club in the world dumb enough to offer Dzeko 5M net. He wouldn't get half of that elsewhere, unless he went to UAE.
Nice to see our team next season is starting with a bang or is it a whimper :palm:

What the fuck? What has UEFA/FIFA anything to do with that? Call Inter if you have something.

Grande, another national team coach will blame Inter for a fitness issue.

5 mil / year is absolutely ridiculous and all management should fuck off if that happens

I would renew him for 3 or 3.5 mil for 1 year. 5 is too much.
