Oaktree Capital Management

[Il Drago]

Gds this morning saying we will finally have some sort of budget after several years of needing to sell to buy. It will be around 20-25 mil per player.

The worrying thing is it's eerily similar to milan strategy in terms of money and concentrating too much on younger players, but at least we don't have complete retards in our sporting department like they do. Hell, everything is better than having zero budget and looking for free transfers like an ultimate beggars. Hopefully marotta and co. can make it work...

Not exactly like Milan. For instance we don't have a salary cap (yet ). We're still offering salaries Milan can only dream of. Their highest earner is Leao at 5m net. That would make him Inter's 6th highest earner at 5m (tied with Pavard). Lautaro just signed an extension with a net salary almost double of that.

It's never too much for one of the oldest squads in the league. We are far away from reaching the "too much" point.

i think Inter, despite Oaktree preference, will target another free transfer at 30+....

but i assume Oaktree will offer one year contract only. unlike Zhang, mostly gave those free agent at least a heavy, 3-4 years contract.

Darth_Ausillo, I can't tell you how funny I found your post. I just sat here laughing my arse off!

After that we had an 8-game winless record. What memories

Does anyone actually know if our management team is any good?

Other than Beppe, what have the other directors done?

Other than Beppe, what have the other directors done?

“Piero Ausilio has proven himself a maestro in the transfer market as Sporting Director for Internazionale. His shrewd business saw Inter secure key signings like Piotr Zielinski and Mehdi Taremi on free transfers, bolstering the squad without breaking the bank.

Ausilio’s tactical approach extends beyond the pitch. He’s orchestrated Inter’s long-term strategy, balancing silverware ambitions with financial fair play. His focus on youth development and sustainable growth has transformed Inter into a powerhouse in Serie A and on the European stage.

At just 50, Ausilio is already considered one of football’s elite sporting directors. His vision continues to elevate Inter Milan, setting the gold standard for front offices across the continent.”

Sorry, my question wasnt really meant for Ausilio but the others supporting Beppe in the boardroom.

CFO, COO, Commercial Director whoever the other guys that sit at the table. It seems commercially we always seem to shit the bed.

And I thought we had someone from City or United to bring in sponsorships - I cant recall his name or even if he actually accepted the position for Inter.

Oaktree are banter era worthy owners again...i feel it in my nuts ...here we go again

 

[Darth_Ausilio]

It’s a question of how one views matters. During the banter era we signed:
- Geoffrey Kondogbia €36m
- Jaoo Mario €45m
- Gabriel “Gabigol” Barbosa €29.5m

Sell the club you cunts.

Probably will be remembered in 10 years time as the ownership stint that destroyed the club. Just wait til our current core ages another few years. Lautaro is the captain so maybe he'll be kept around but Barella, Bastoni, even Dimarco, etc will all be up to the highest bidder. I've denied it for long enough. American ownership is poison. Is there a single club who have had good american ownership?

 

[CafeCordoba]

Maybe wait next mercato when we actually need to do some moves? Last summer we had full squad, no spots open. This summer is a different case.

Oaktree signings so far...
2nd GK for 15mil
Topalovic for 1-2mil

That's it right?
