This club is amateur level in selling players. Yeah we maxxed out on Icardi and Lukaku but that has been the only good 2 sales in our recent history.

Sky: negotiations continue, if Saudis pay 10M€ more the deal can be done.


GET FUCKED. These Inter GM's should literally ask Saudis: " You pay 55M for a bearded nobody Neves and cheapskake on the best DM in the game. Brozovic is a machine. This guy will retire after 26 year old Neves ffs.

Yeah, Brozo always has superb workrate and stamina, he easily can play to 36-38, to yearly sell him for 20-25m, it's ridiculous numbers, at least 35, for Saudis dictator 45m right price.

15M. You see there is stupid, retarded then there is us. When people come to Inter, what they see is Sunning retail bankruptcy fire sale.
I am sure we are way worse than Bed Bath & Beyond Bankrupt retailer's 'fire sale'.

A guy who just got into WC ,CL and UEFA national league final as a key player worth 15M which got at least 3 more good years to go...

How can Correa and Frattesi cost more than him? Makes no sense ....

The way I see how Sunning hurt us is even on our negotiation level, cause everyone knows we need to sell and want to sell, so they all got us by the balls before the negotiation starts, even Saudis that splashes cash ...

well Correa is a forward, forwards normally get rated for more. Frattesi is 23 and an Italy starter, Broz is 30 and even at his peak he was 40mil and no one wanted to pay that for him..

Lets not forget that, say, Barella leaving Cagliari was pretty much a higher fee than Brozovic was ever even really rumoured to leave for, and he hadnt played at Inter by then either.

Brozovic has solid 3-4 years at top football still.

Neves is younger but he's not at Brozovic level ffs. :lol: How the fuck he costs double then. We could easily ask 40-50m and I can't see Saudis walking home then. If it's fine to Brozovic to go there, then at least fight back a bit. Saudis is the easiest way to make money, they want a world class player from us. Can't see why aren't we asking a proper fee.

Reportedly they offered 80-100m to get Verratti. Yes, just a rumor but still. These other players have higher valuations and they are shit compared to Brozo.

Dogen-like post incoming.

For me, if there's one thing to take away from the new #INTERISHERE video, it's this (shoddy) screenshot of a moment the cameras didn't quite capture in real-time:

MnQJPUw.png


It's the single greatest moment of this club for at least 6 years, and Marcelo Brozovic and Andrea Ranocchia just so happen to epitomize the feelings we all felt at that moment.

Ranocchia who had the misfortune of taking over the captain's armband after JZ - a position no one could have ever dreamed of living up to, let alone someone as average as him. For years and years and years the butt of everyone's (fans of Inter and otherwise) jokes and a target of immense ridicule.
Woefully inadequate in almost every aspect of the game, everyone agreed upon. Couldn't hack it at Hull, let alone Inter. Weak on the field and, it seemed, mentally off the field as well.

Brozovic, the spoiled brat who, everyone could tell, had the talent to succeed but the attitude of a petulant child. A player who almost always did well with his national team, but then looked like he wanted to be everywhere else than Inter. Arms up in the air and constant shrugging of the shoulders. Even going as far as to (maybe, might, could've) intentionally giving away a penalty on purpose against Sampdoria last season in pure spite.
The person almost everyone wanted out in the summer (if that one person wasn't Ranocchia).

Now, we're looking at quite a different picture.

Ranocchia, vice-captain and, from all I've heard, a bonafide leader and well-liked guy in the locker room. A (mostly) reliable and dependable reserve who doesn't complain about playing time. Everything you want in a second-string player.
Brozovic, who for large parts of the second part of the season carried the majority of our creativity and output from midfield on his shoulders. Endless and tireless running, all game long no matter the score. All of a sudden more forerunner, less class clown.

Fast-forward to the 81st minute of the Lazio game, and these two (former) persona-non-gratas are now screaming their lungs out in wild ecstasy because of the first (real) success-story either of them have been part of at this club, clinging to each other like blood-brothers.

I don't know, I thought it was a cute moment to be proud of.
If nothing else, Pazza Inter personified.
In the midst of these shitty fucking rumors, I dug up this dusty-ass old post, because everything said then is more poignant and relevant now five years on.

Brozo is simultaneously the class clown, the frozen pizza-eating, tree-climbing, bomb-tatoo wearing class clown, and the one player who epitomizes our journey. Never mind the fact that he's been, realistically, a top 10 midfielder in the World for the last 4 to 5 years, or that he has been the integral cog in our team during the same period.
He is the personification of our journey from laughing stocks losing to Hapoel Beer Sheva to Serie A winners and Champions League finalists. None of that could've been achieved without him, and none of the rise would've been as enjoyable without a player like him.

He is Pazza and he bleeds Inter. When all this - whatever 'this' is - is over, he, along with Handa - are the only remnants of the banter era to go into LGI. No two ways about it.

And he's still got so much more left in the tank. Frattesi or whatever replacement can be however good, and Calhanoglu has done well deputizing, I don't really care. In this modern football World, I don't want to see the few players I care for whored out for small-change because Suning can't manage their way out of a phone-booth

This point, however irrelevant to the Chinese, can't be stated enough. You can't have loyalty without showing loyalty. As we saw with Skriniar, you can't push out your best players at the behest of an owner who's turning every single rock to find a dime, and then not expect players to act like they owe you nothing. You can't expect love, pride and allegiance and the willingness from players to stay at your club despite the allure of richer, bigger clubs, and at the same time entertain rumors from a club like Al-Nassr for a player like Marcelo Brozovic.

Inter is a family, always has been, not just a football club that runs on numbers and results.
With Suning (and to a lesser extent Marotta), however.. nothing seems sacred.

It's just.... sad, man.

Great post!

This is the sad reality that we're forced to sell players we might like. The reality that we just need to jump whenever someone is offering something for our players.

But all the sentimental things aside, I can't stand it we would be selling a core player like Brozovic for cheap. Now that there is a fucking chance of our life time to really make money relatively easily, we accept 25m for Brozovic. We can't even buy Frattesi with that money. What kind of a fucking mockery is this?

I'm really gonna lose it if we're forced to "swap" Brozo for Frattesi and call it a day. Yeah, it looks good on excel with the age reduction, cost savings, plusvalenza and whatnot but not doing ENOUGH when you're losing one of your, well, almost legends, is just unacceptable. Even Brozovic should deserve it that if he's sent to Saudis, at least fucking make a fucking mint to Inter with that.

25m is a fucking travesty. At this point I'm hoping Brozovic is going to reject this.

I wouldn't change a word. And it's so fitting this new era of Inter started with the abomination of a crest Chinese forced to the club.

I have yet to read a report that Brozovic has agreed terms with Saudis. So far i have no indication it's Brozovic who is pushing Inter to sell him and not the other way around.

No, no, no.

I'm fine him going if he wants to go, make that big, big money. Club's situation is not easy. He has an expensive contract and want to shed salaries, that's how it goes. It's the club actions which is pissing me off here. They should fucking monetize the shit out of this deal. We are losing a starting player here, make the best out of the bad situation.
