That's fucking awful if we cannot sign these guys for 3-year deals.

According to CdS, Marotta and Ausilio want to sign 3-year contract while Zhang only wants 2 (that is when their Oaktree loan expires)

If that is true, well, does anyone still think Suning cares for Inter?
If this is true, it's really interesting these extensions are linked with Oaktree loan deal. It's as if the club is going to change management when the loan expires.

It definitely sparks uncertainty.

But we did sign extensions for players past that date, so it's odd.

Oh, so you're telling me we are watching Inter deteriorate? Slow and steady we watch our players change club and soon the management too :)

I think that's a different matter as these directors play in a different role in this organization. Players are merely just pawns, employees, assets. Directors run the show so I kind of get it but also, I don't get it. I mean, if the deal is 3 years but Oaktree takes control after 2 years, they don't want these guys, they just fucking sack them?

Or is it the Oaktree using veto in the board? Still don't get it as our management trio is one of the best in the business. Can't hurt any club to have those three in the club. Maybe Marotta's role as CEO is bugging them, Marotta requiring too much power for Oaktree's liking?

Can't really see any reason not to sing 3 year deal other than Oaktree board members blocking that for some reason.

The point is nobody knows. Suning don't know whether Oaktree wants the old management or not. While Oaktree aren't sure Suning pay their loan or just give Inter to them -> obviously they can't join our head arrangement atm.

That's why Suning don't want a long-term commitment i.e. pen contracts.

The only thing certain is that their long-term commitment statement was bullshit, if that rumor is true.

I had read Oaktree do have the right of veto in every decision. We should also remember this isn't only about the sporting section (Marotta and Ausilio). It's also about the corporate section (Antonello). If we have a change of ownership Antonello is probably going to be the first to go as the new owners would like to bring their own guy as CEO.

They've been openly trying to sell Inter for how long now and still you now realise that the commitment statement was bullshit? They are lubing the fans in before they start fucking them over :)

Suning Fully Committed to Inter, Hatch Plans for Future​

Suning have put the rumors about a potential sale of Inter behind them. There were some talks with PIF before they acquired Newcastle, but they did not gain much traction. The Chinese conglomerate is committed to the Nerazzurri and has a clear vision for the club, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports.

The ownership outlined their strategy in the quarterly Inter Media and Communication report, which sums up the commercial profits. It confirmed that the project would move forward. One of the main focuses is to expand the brand among the €103M Chinese fans. Moreover, they aim to promote youth football as prescribed by the government. The multiple sponsorships on the first-team kit will yield €116M until 2025, a significant improvement compared to previous seasons.

As a sign of continuity, the contracts of top executives Giuseppe Marotta, Alessandro Antonello, Piero Ausilio and Dario Baccin will be extended until 2024. The official statements will arrive when it is easier for Steven Zhang to travel to Italy amid the COVID-related restrictions.

Inter will have to continue to self-finance like in the past year. The new stadium will be pivotal in that regard. Furthermore, sound player trading will remain key. Marotta stated yesterday: “We have to find sustainable models, like selling players and replace them properly. I think it is an ethical modus operandi. We owe our stability to the Zhang family, but the pandemic caused major problems. We do not have a daily dialog, but we are in touch very often. They make their presence felt.”

Different political systems, culture and language compared to the the west/anglo/English speaking world.
