Inter’s coach preferred Mkhitaryan over Pastore and wanted a regista whilst Inter was blocked thanks to the restrictions imposed under UEFA’s Financial Fair Play rules.
Inter’s Sporting Directors wanted a trequartista whilst Inter coach Luciano Spallettis instead wanted a deep-lying playmaker Corriere dello Sport’s Andrea Ramazzotti explains: “Inter and their coach have during the recent days discovered that they have ideas and priorities for the transfer market that differ from eachother. This is explained by the fact that Inter, after bringing in Lisandro Lopez and Rafinha, did not sign any other player but instead let a lot of players go in order to repair the budget. Ausilio and above all Sabatini wanted Pastore while Spalletti asked for Mkhitaryan. In fact Spalletti preferred Lobokta instead of Pastore as well as also Fabian Ruiz or Torreiera”
However, all negotiation have been blocked by the restrictions imposed by the Financial Fair Play rules. Everything must be balanced in order to avoid any risk of loosing a possible Champions League spot, something that can happen if Inter continue to violate UEFA’s sanctions. The only thing is that in order to get there, Spalletti now has to use what he has at his disposal.
