Ivan Zazzaroni, director of Corriere dello Sport, analyzed Inter‘s difficulties in the transfer market during the newspaper’s podcast. The journalist emphasized that the Nerazzurri club is operating in a phase of strong football inflation, where revenues have almost doubled compared to the past but expenses have grown even more sharply.

According to Zazzaroni, the competitive problems are evident: the Palestra cases and the possible Curtis Jones show that Inter struggles to compete for certain targets. However, the director wanted to exonerate Piero Ausilio, explaining that the Nerazzurri executive has to deal with constraints imposed by Oaktree. The American ownership is said to have set a maximum cap of 25 million for operations, an amount considered insufficient for top-level signings in the current market.

The journalist acknowledged the work done by Ausilio on free transfer opportunities and on management stability. However, he highlighted a paradox: at a time when revenues have increased and the theoretical spending capacity is higher, the blocks imposed by the ownership prevent these resources from being fully exploited. A situation that limits the club’s ambitions in a delicate phase of the market.
