Contrary to the very successful budget of recent seasons, last summer’s market did not show the same performance as previous campaigns. The last purchases made by Inter up to this point have not lived up to the expectations set for them upon their arrival in Milan.

From zero parameters like Taremi and Zielinski, through Buchanan, Palacios and Josep Martinez. Apart from the Canadian winger, who was loaned out with a right to buy to Villarreal after an anonymous first year in the black and blue jersey, it may be too soon to talk about failures regarding the other new arrivals.

As reiterated this morning by the Corriere dello Sport, however, in the eyes of Oaktree the time has come to change the approach. From these premises, the indication to follow a different line: more space for young people and prospects, less to free agents, especially the mature ones, to overpay and then unsaleable. A directive already forwarded by the American ownership to the executives last summer and that will guide the next incoming moves.

Not just acquisitions, however, as highlighted by the Roman newspaper this morning. There are also planned several departures with the aim of maintaining maximum competitiveness. Recruitment and identity card will be observed more closely by the club than in the past, without excluding the possibility of having to endure some significant sacrifices.
