Really fantastic episode, covering the Acerbi incident intelligently and a very concise and clear financial picture with a crystal ball into the future as well. Can't ask for much more than that. Well done guys.

Okay, let's break down the Nike deal a bit here. It's reported to be 21m€ base fee + team perf bonuses.

On top of that, we've bought the merchandising from Nike at 2019 for 6m€. So all the revenues from the kits, Nike clothes and shit comes to our bank account. Last season 22/23, our revenues from merch was 13.5m€. Production costs were 3.5m€, so the profits were 10m€.

That makes the Nike deal pretty okay for us, given we get 21m€ base fee + 10m€ from merch + any team perf bonuses on top. That's already more than what Puma pays to Milan (30m€). Since that Puma deal includes all the merch so Milan isn't getting extra revenues from the sold merc (same deal as what Juve has with Adidas)

Gazzetta is reporting now that our revenues from Nike merch this season would be around 24m€. If we calculate the production costs with the same ratio, they would be around 6m€. So 18m€ profit on merch. If these numbers are anywhere near the truth, we're closing 40m€ from our kit provider which isn't all too bad at this point of this club's evolution IMO.

Estimate is 25m loss this season. Which is considerably better than 85m loss last season.

However this season will include Onana and Brozovic sale profits. Better CL revenue and added CWC revenue next season should cover something but still, the case is we cannot reinforce the squad without sales.

But even this season includes 100m injection from Zhangs (shareholder loan turned to equity).

As i ve said multiple times the vast majority of the italian press knows nothing..
Our finances dont look that bad after all
The only question is whether we can continue to build a competitive squad via free transfers. I tend to believe the answer is yes, as more and more players see the appeal of getting to free agency.

A new stadium wouldn't hurt either!

Can we stop advertising betting companies? This is not the most ethical thing to do and I know some people who ruined their lives because of their betting addiction. As Inter we should strive to make the world better not worse

Not bad thanks!

I came here to share the same update..
So far Oaktree have been resilient to refinance the loan, considering it ‘high risk’, and so Zhang and his advisors have been hard at work trying to find a solution, considering finding a new loan with the help of Goldman Sachs and the Raine Group.

Il Sore 24 Ore journalist Carlo Festa details how Oaktree have handed a lifeline to Zhang and Inter, opening up to a refinance of the loan from a private equity under certain conditions, in exchange for further guarantees and the promise of finding a new investor in the club in the foreseeable future.
Deadline: May 20th.
