Didn't some woman connected to PIF go out and say they have no interest in Inter?

Though Inter didn't take the Oaktree loan. Suning's holding company took the loan and gives shareholder loans to Inter from that.

PIF rumors just keeps living.
Same difference really.. the credit worthiness of the entity..


PIF ain't gonna happen.

she's really not connected to PIF... as in PIF decisions dont depend on her.. she knows diddly dick of what PIF does.

True, Amanda Staveley is not a part of PIF. She owns PCP, has serious connects with middle eastern investors into Europe. She did the Man City deal for Sheikh Mansour, and the Newcastle deal for PIF. In the latter case, she also ended up becoming a partner of PIF, owning 10% of Newcastle.

So if Amanda is saying that "PIF are no longer interested in Inter", its not coming from ignorance on her part. Either she is stating a fact, or its posturing. If PIF want to buy Inter they would most likely involve her as dealmaker.

Btw, this is what she said: “We talked to Inter Milan, AC Milan, but the problem was the structure of the league was a mess. But we’re not looking at Inter [any more].”

I suspect she is referring to the bureaucracy involved in Serie A, in things like stadium, etc.

On something completely else, can you please explain this "But we’re not looking at Inter [any more].”. Why the fuck is the "any more" inside the "[ ]"????

What do you mean what's wrong? They've put hundreds of millions to the club so they want something back. They won't get 1bn but you gotta ask for more than what you're content with to get.

if you help people get in Britain, does not mean that you help them get into Italy. Why would PIF work with PCP, who has ties in UK, to get them in Italy, completely different world.

She spoke as if she were the PIF spokeswoman.

Wouldnt it make sense for PIF to be majority share holder, if Suning is not willing to sell?

PIF with the financial backing, Suning with the eastern advertisements for global recognition....

I just hope this becomes real and we dont have to sell our arses to get a seat with the big boys.

You put all these comments about money in your post without actually telling us how much Suning put in? Nah, they are fucking us over this summer and how they refuse selling to PIF.

I don't know any exact figures but different reporters have talked how the total money invested is close to 700m€ (including buying the 68% of the club for 270m€).

Marotta also said how much they've invested. Of course that's just what owners told him to say publicly, but it's the truth.

What the owners do now is just saving what is left. They need to get the books in order bit by bit. Covid fucked this club hard. Stadium project is probably one key point in time which might be the selling trigger (for buyers that's important).

Edit. This "fucking us over" part is just ridiculous, they are not obliged to spend more and more to the club. They brought the Scudetto after 11 years and you guys just keep moaning. :D

Call me optimistic but I really believe there is something with PIF. I just don’t think Barella who could pick to play for any club in the world would renew, now you could say it’s cos he’s Italian but then what about Lautaro who’s agent touted his exit for years suddenly renews? And Bastoni earlier in the year as well, I just don’t think they would have if they knew things aren’t gonna change soon.

Even securing someone like Onana who has been courted by Barcelona and Arsenal would join. And the names we’re being linked to again, albeit just rumors, but the likes of Rudiger, Gosens , Adeyemi and Raspadori ( who may not be rated as highly by some of you but still costs like 30-40 mill) is making me believe

So basically they want to make a 50% profit?

They've pumped in hundreds of millions directly and never taken a penny out of inter.

I know everyone wants us just to be a billionaires play thing without regard for the wealth of the owner, but its kinda ironic since I bet most of us don't even spend any real money with the club either.

What are you on about? They want to make a 50% profit from 700m euro.

This is also how they want to sell the club to someone for 1b after they sold the most important players of our attack force that won scudetto? I added the last part since you all talk about scudetto. This is not the same team who won the scudetto. Lets not kid ourself because the quality of Serie A has turned into shit. Before we had Juve who could compete in CL, now we have no one.

And just because I pump money into a team doesn't make it worth more? You guys talk like every trade is a trade that goes winwin no matter how you spent the money that you pumped into the club.

How much did Thohir make? Should Moratti have sold the club for 10b? I don't understand the reasoning when you keep on mentioning how much money they pumped in.

So what if they want profit? They invested heavily in the club, and got us back to the Champions League, and won us the league. This club is worth more than when Suning bought it, and they haven't taken a penny out of the club.

Inter's worth more, not less, with Lukaku and Hakimi sold - we overachieved valuation for both of them, reduced substantial cost.


Moratti's pumping of money in is different - it was done over decades. Suning have done it over what, 4 5 years? I think if you added up all the Chinese sponsorship, you'd probably get north of a billion they've invested into the club.

That's not how it works. With the arguments going around here then Moratti should've sold the club for atleast 10b.

You can sell the club for the price that the market decides and they want to fucking sell which they been trying to do since corona crisis. This is why I'm saying they are fucking us over. We will be in a limbo.
