The Inter is about to officialize two more signatures on contract renewals. With Yann Bisseck and Denzel Dumfries, there will be six extensions completed during the Oaktree era, following those of Simone Inzaghi, Lautaro Martinez, Nicolò Barella and Kristjan Asllani.
La Gazzetta dello Sport focuses on the strategy of the Californian fund, defining it as a “monster maneuver“, since the impact of the new contracts – if we consider all the years to be paid to the members – will have a cost exceeding 180 million gross: 183.6 million from now until 2029. Oaktree has effectively locked up all the players with a significant transfer fee, only leaving some over thirty-year-olds to expire in 2025.
According to the rosea, as regards the transfer market, Oaktree will push on profiles like Bisseck, whose renewal announcement will arrive between today and tomorrow. The summer purchase of Tomas Palacios goes in this direction: an expenditure very similar in terms of figures to that for the German, it is hoped that the market value will grow equally in the coming seasons.
For Bisseck, a few months ago a proposal of 25 million euros from West Ham was indeed rejected. It would have been a decent capital gain he came for 7 million, but the black and blue club chose to keep him in the squad and believe in further growth.
