What will happen next summer will be nothing but the result of the hard work Simone Inzaghi has been doing since his arrival in Milan. The coach, brought in to replace Antonio Conte following his departure, has had to endure a precarious economic situation for years, always having to close transfer windows with a profit or, at best, breaking even.
However, through continuous victories and outstanding performances in the Champions League, Inzaghi and his players have contributed significantly in helping pull Inter out of their most challenging period, greatly increasing incoming revenues. This year, thanks to qualifying for the quarter-finals, the club has already earned 98.5 million euros from UEFA—30 million more than last season.
These are figures the club had only previously achieved in the 2022/23 season, when Inter reached the European final against Manchester City. Now, partly due to the arrival of Oaktree, the situation has improved significantly, and the club is rapidly moving towards the eagerly awaited financial equilibrium.
As highlighted this morning by Corriere dello Sport, for the first time under Inzaghi’s administration, the transfer market will not have to close with a profit or even break even. Instead, as Marotta himself has repeatedly indicated, next summer will mark Inter’s return to investing.
