Inter Milan held emergency transfer talks following the debacle of their loss to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final.
This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInter1908.
Saturday’s loss to PSG in the Champions League final exposed glaring faults at Inter Milan.
It is not just that the Nerazzurri lost to the Parisians. They were utterly humiliated, looking sluggish and out of condition.
This made it clear – the average age of Inter’s squad is not sustainable.
Wins over teams like Bayern Munich and Barcelona may have papered over some cracks. However, the Nerazzurri cannot hope to compete at the highest level with the players have now.
According to the Corriere dello Sport, the Nerazzurri hierarchy reacted immediately after Saturday’s final.
Club President Beppe Marotta along with Sporting Director Piero Ausilio spoke with Oaktree Capital representatives.
It is clear that Inter owners Oaktree want to start investing in young players. And they are even willing to spend to do so.
But senior figures at the club reckoned with the implications of Saturday’s lost for the transfer market immediately after the match.
