Well they better hurry it up, don't we have deadlines this month?

That's Kind of the point of them. The closer the deadline the more depndence we have on them, thusly the cheaper price.

Corriere della Sera is saying the final BC offer is 800M.

Fucking Roma was sold for 600M... Are we really worth only 200M more than those losers?

There are many factors in play that have very little to do with the brand and team performance. For instance, amount of debt, cash on balance and all the other boring accounting stuff.

Interview of BC Partners partner Nikos Stathopoulos:

That line about searching for a club with a high level probability of winning hints at some sort of ambition, but still not convinced.

I think our best case scenario is getting new owners who will not demand any big player sacrifices plus low to medium size budget for transfers and thats it. And unfortunately even that looks way optimistic right now.

 

[CafeCordoba]

I have more confidence that BC Partners is something which won't flush everything we've achieved down the toilet. Stathopolous talks about content and you make money with content only if it's everywhere ie. product needs to be good.

Also, Fabio Ravezzani calls that the deal is almost done.

Breaking news: In circles close to the negotiation, the sale of Inter from Suning to BC Partners has now been defined. Few details remain, but the happy conclusion of the deal is taken for granted.

According to the newspaper, the offer would be of a hybrid type, partly equity and partly of financing, and would also be aimed at refinancing existing debt: bonds for around 375 million euros. We will see in the next few days if the negotiation will go live

I know this is the wrong thread but something has happened to my settings I guess.

EDIT: Maybe its always been like this? maybe im just tired -.-

Any clue about BC Partners's track record? Are they reliable? Shady? Ambitious?

so.. Suning would still be majority owners? Alot of leverage for a party that is bankrupt

unless that price for both is Enterprise Value

 

[javier_zanetti <3]

CDSport and GDS talking about PIF, the Saudian fund managed by the Royal family, as a candidate. If it's true, this is a different level from Suning. More like Moratti of the 90's.

 

[vex]

I don't think that's happening. Even if they are interested whole of seria a would go scared shitless and overnight you would see laws preventing them to invest, or some barriers on moralistic grounds. Thats the same fund that wanted to invest in newcastle and everyone went another man city, no thanks.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Would be completely disgusting scenario if Inter were to be a platform for sportswashing by the Saudi Arabia.

 

[brehme1989]

At the same time, we are at the mercy of absent chinese investors who may not really care at all if they become red flags for Inter fans all over the world (or don't consider that) as they may not care at all about the situation in Italy.

All they will care about is getting their money back plus a hefty premium. At some point they may lose the premium and accept a loss due to their persistent stand, but it could be too late for us and we'll be missing out on Europe or something.

But I trust that UEFA will be lenient with us and everyone during this shitfest.

It's a crucial month. Till the next one.
