What’s up with the Correa hate. He is more proven than Vlahovic’s one breakout season.

A tall east European striker with one breakout season makes big move. Seen this story before with Piatek and Jovic. Let the kid develop.

Lol, the worst case scenario was Lukaku or Lautaro + Hakimi both going, but add the terrible shit that happened with Eriksen, and this team is pretty much fucked.

I'm actually worried we might not make CL at this rate. That race was super competitive last time around.

Spot on post.

Losing Conte, Hakimi, Eriksen and Lukaku will mean that we struggle to qualify for the Champions League. This is too much change all at once with there being absolutely no guarantee of quality replacements.

If the club's owners and management are happy with going from Scudetto winners to also-rans in the space of a few months then so be it. But I am not going to be sticking around for the shit-show decade that follows.

If the deal go through I'd like to splash 40mln cash for Locatelli. It's not that we need him anyway but it will be lovely to see the stupid look on Juve's faces when we snatch their main target for this merkato under their noses.
Yeah, locatelli + berrardi.
Lukaku 120 + werner or abraham dry loan (chelsea pay the salary) .

It would be horrible on all levels to sell him now. We sold Hakimi, we got the money we need for the year, that was supposed to cut off any other major sales. Hakimi was the sacrificial lamb we needed to get rid of, so there's no point in weakening the squad by selling Lukaku now. Selling one of our best players without a proper replacement not once but TWICE during a summer is really fucking bad on all levels. I don't care how the 120m would help the club at this point. It's not like it's going to help us replace Lukaku or Hakimi, most of it will go to covering debts while we get more stop-gap covers for the squad.

We are going to be in a huge fucking mess without Eriksen, Hakimi, and Lukaku if we sell to Chelsea. Not to mention Inzaghi is still a huge question mark. We are literally on our way back to the banter era months after winning the scudetto.

I fucking hate this club so much. Don't sell Lukaku you god damn idiots.

An serious club with some kind of ambition would at least try to keep their best players.

But we are Inter🤡🤡🤡

Regardless of our financial crisis, I think we would still take 130 million for 28 years old. We all love Lukaku, but it is gonna be offer that we can't refuse.

I hope Zapata or Correa is just smokescreen and Marotta already approached Vlahovic's agent now. If we are dealing after we sold Lukaku, every club will milking us because they know we have money. Anyway, why don't we get that guy named Messi in Barcelona. Free transfer and obviously we can afford his 50 mio annual salary.

That's not how Inter should think. Imagine if Chelsea had offered Bayern Munich 130 million for Lewandowski. They would have been told to go fuck themselves, because Lewa IS Bayern, much like Lukaku IS Inter. And Lewandowski is 33.

Unfortunately, we are not Bayern Munich. We're not even Inter anymore. We are Udinese.

We still owe around 50M€ for Rom, right? If we get 130M€ we could potentially still secure Vlahovic, Dumfries, Kostic.

I think Viola would agree a high loan 15M and 45M redemption , payable in 2 years plus Satriano loan ( Im sure all Serie A minnows would like to have him, he's been our best pre season player)

Dumfries 15M, Kostic 12M

With a deal structure like this there's enough money for daddy Zhang inChina so he can sleep well.

After sleeping a night, I realized one thing. Of course we are not going to use all 130m€ to reinforce the squad. Owner wants to bank part of that.

So in management's perspective they are not selling Lukaku for 130m€, but for 100m€ or 80m€ or something like that because owner takes their cut. Meaning the deal is nothing like Zidane/Zlatan type of business where one big asset is changed to multiple new assets.

So saying 130m€ deal is reasonable, he's already 28, this is the last time we get this big offer for him (I've used all these arguments myself) is just false, it's lying to yourself saying that shit.

We ain't gonna use 130m€ on new players. Which effectively makes it a shitty deal. Marotta is forced to do this deal, they wouldn't sell Lukaku if it was up to them. Probably not even in a case they'd keep all the money (then it could make sense).

So yeah fuck Zhangs and their whole fucking family. I hope they end up to going bankruptcy with all their businesses.
