Yeah, I'd wait for GDS/Sky, or actually Il Sole 24 Ore. But still, if it's true, looks like I was right on Yunfeng. This would be huge in terms of Inter's image. First top club fully owned by Chinese (and don't even mention Yonghong Li). Zhang Jindong was relatively unknown for anyone outside China, but Jack Ma is known worldwide.

Jack Ma is too good to be true.. I want Hazard, Messi and De Bruyne.. icardi and perisic can fuck off

 

[dax21]

This is gonna be fucking awesome once we get rid of the FFP issues in about 7 years.

 

[Palacio]

It’s all talk until we see actual signing of world class players.

Saw that on Facebook group

China Money Network - Suning International, sussidiaria di Suning.com, contribuirà con 50 milioni di dollari al lancio del fondo Yungfeng IK, veicolo di investimento del fondo privato di JackMa Yungfeng Capital

A further confirmation of the possible partnership of Jack Ma with Zhang in an Inter key comes at this time . According to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange , Suning International Group Co., a subsidiary of the Chinese online retailer Suning.com , will contribute $ 50 million to jointly launch Jack Ma's Yunfeng Capital fund . A clue that adds to all others already highlighted today by the Italian press.

Regarding trade war, aren't 90%of alibaba revenue stream from within China? I know they may source stuff from abroad but stil, anyway i think ill write smth regarding the chinese business models of vertical integration and how that could effect inter

Huger than huge (if the rumours are true).

That being said... as others have noticed, if we put our tin foil hats on, we can connect a few interesting dots.

- A mysterious and still unclear Hong Kong fund. Possibly a smokescreen?
- Spalletti started (was forced?) to play with 2 strikers upfront, more and more. Yes, that rings a bell.
- We just loaned Andrea Palazzi to "his" Monza. Only a coincidence?
- As a matter of fact, "he" tried to buy Inter before Milan, back in the day. Circles are meant to be close, even with a 31 percent stake.

After Beppe Marotta, are we trying to take things to the next level? If that's the case: "Welcome on board, Silvio".

The Deep State strikes back.

This new investor will be Alibaba, I am totally sure. They are close partners with Suning. Otherwise Zhang would buy out Thohir's stake himself.

Capital increase and 1-2 top players in summer, you heard it here first. Better things are awaiting our club in the future, guys.

Congrats for being the 1st to write this.

Realistically, Thohir can sell his shares to whoever he wants - I would have expected if 30% was up for grabs and we wanted that 30% to be taken over by friends of suning, why wouldnt suning just buy it directly? Save all the hassle.


For them, it would be much easier to have 100% of Inter ,and if they want, they can sell part ownership of the holding company rather than Inter directly. Shit, we could almost go fully private and dont have to worry about publishing accounts, AGMs, all that sort of stuff. 30% to some random minority owner doesnt change anything really.

Ehm, Suning tried to buy out Thohir`s shares but he asked for too much. So they perhaps now try to buy him out indirectly, via Hong-Kong? So no more China limitations regarding foreign investments makes sense.

 

[Bluenine]

If it is Yunfeng Capital, that is exciting. It probably means we want to accelerate buying out the stadium. Most likely its Inter & Milan jointly buying out San Siro. Once the stadium is owned and renovated, FFP issues will be history and Inter can start looking at top players.

After Beppe Marotta, are we trying to take things to the next level? If that's the case: "Welcome on board, Silvio".

LOL. A less known fact is that Berlusconi was an Inter fan before he bought Milan. But now he never will invest in Inter, he is too politically aware for that.

That was genuinely funny

 

[Il Drago]

Chairman of Alibaba Market Public Relations denied on Weibo the news regarding Jack Ma and Inter

 

[forzainter257]

Is it me or does Jack Ma look like asian Mourinho? I sometimes see those hardly visible similarities in their facial expressions

 

[Il Drago]

According to GdS, the investment fund from Hong Kong that is going to buy Thohir shares is LionRock Capital of Daniel Tseung. This is their description on their website:
