Then better not sell!

I`m not buying these rumors, must be some media crap. 60M is his currently estimated transfer value, must have got it from transfermarkt.

Why would you sell such a defender in the first place? He should be the pillar of this club in the next decade.

If you`re forced to sell, at least make it worth the sacrifice, ask for 100M or something. I mean EPL clubs have been paying stupid money for lesser defenders.

Management should postpone/reject all offers for him, fucking start selling the deadwood first, then De Vrij, Pinamonti and see where you are in August with that annoying target imposed by Suning.

I`m still upset about the Hakimi discount sale, if they pull another one of these I`ll shift my focus to something better for my health.

The reason why they'll sell him is because there's immediate interest. With the Hakimi deal there was an early deadline to make the money, so assume we have it again this year. Probably mid June or July 1st.

Don't have one.

We can't ask for shit if we HAVE to sell. That was the case last season with hakimi and will probably be the case now with whoever we decided to sell. We have to raise 60 mil, and we will get exactly that or slightly more and that's it. 100 mil asking price which he is worth it btw, is a big dick move for a club that is currently dickless.

He is out,I have zero doubts about that and I already made my piece with this awful situation.


We usually don't have a clue how to sell players (Lukaku is exception) and once again we will give our diamonds for nothing. Anything south of like 70 M is fucking disgrace and if we know what we are doing he would not go under 80-90 at least.


Still, I'm selling him any day of the week ahead of Lautaro,Barella...if we need to sell one of this guys. It's always easier (and cheaper) to find good defender than forward (we literally saw that last summer) and yes we will not find another Bastoni but we will go for a different type and then it's up to Inzaghi to tweek our system. I'm sure managment is already aware of this that we will need to change something in the way we are playing and I think it's easier (and again,cheaper) to do that than to find forward with 20+ goals in him.


Yeah,maybe he could refuse this move like Skriniar before but I'm pretty sure we will be even in deeper shit if he do that and we sell Lautaro instead.


Barella was so frustrating and childlish too many times and I want to say that we should sell him but it's not happening and again,it's easier to find defender no matter how unique Bastoni is and then tweek your system than to find good midfielder.


We should absolutely try to sell de Vrij + Dumfries first but I can see why we could go in even deeper hole by trying to do that and wasting time. If we failed,Bastoni/Barella/Lautaro would go even cheaper cause everyone will know that we need to sell really fast.


Wtf is even solution to this shit every summer? I'm not even sure that there is anybody with some money who wants to buy this fucking club cause there is always some debt and situation with stadium will never get solved cause it's Italy.

I can see us selling him for 45m plus bonuses, so max 60mil. They are so desperate to get some cash fkn bums.

He just posted a pic with blue and black hearts on his insta story. Not looking good.

Wildly disappointing from Suning if this goes through.

If McGuire, who’s a god awful defender, can be sold without playing for a top club for £80m I would be holding out for €100m since Bastoni has proven he can! And also isn’t shit.

But yeah I’m hoping he just tells the owners to fuck off.

I'd rather sell Lautaro than Bastoni. I have certain reasons for this but i am too exhausted with the situation and i can't be bothered to make yet another lengthy post.

Maguire is english, which raises the fee by around 50% when sold to another EPL team, much like italians are way overpriced when sold between serie a teams.

Also Maguire was sold at a time when clubs had a different economic upturn.

Please stop making silly comparisons in this regards, it makes no sense. You cannot relate a bastoni sale to an EPL team in 2022 to a Maguire sale between EPL clubs in 2019.

It feels like this entire meltdown comes from:
- An article about Spurs being interested from a few days ago;
- An article about ManUtd being interested today;
- Inter being in a tough financial situation and possibly having to sell 1 or more players.


Yet we are somehow saying goodbyes to Bastoni in the forum. Perhaps a bit premature?

nah.

Firstly, there's no "possibly" about our need to raise €60m from player sales. That has been reported so long you can consider it an established certainty. In fact, for the foreseeable future you can consider it a mandatory yearly requirement.

Secondly, the reports of Bastoni being the one selected by management to sacrifice are strong enough to be considered credible. This is a management that tried extremely hard to sell Skriniar of all people - our best player who loves the club - and even tried to sell him WHILE WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FUCKING TITLE RACE. That goes to show absolutely everything about the ambitions of the club and its financial state.

That report did not really make sense since tottenham didnt even by a center back last january

I mean, fucking Ben White was bought from Brighton for £50m. He's a year older and much fucking worse.

If we are selling basto, if it's not for 100m we are fucking retards and that's all there is to it. I'll never forgive that cyclops marotta if he does it

Hakimi was a bitter loss just after acquiring him he had to be sacrificed. Then Lukaku wanted out but at least we got a massive sum for him. But losing Bastoni for €60m should be a sackable offense tbh. He’s an Interista, he doesn’t want to leave the club, he’s still so young for a CB and his potential is massive.

Marotta and Ausilio need to find an alternative somehow and someway.

Imo Inter should look for any way possible to raise the price, even making connections that don't necessarily hold.

They are rich, they are desperate for a defender and they paid for one a lot. They should at least match that price.

Now, excuse me, I have to vomit because we are discussing the sale of Bastoni.

Skriniar, Barella, Bastoni are the red lines for me. I'd accept Lautaro over them, De Vrij + Dumfries, etc.
