Inter’s ownership have met with the playing squad in order to reach an agreement of the paying of outstanding salaries.

As reported in today’s print edition of daily newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Nerazzurri are facing mounting concerns over outstanding wages from a deferral made during the break in play last year, caused by the coronavirus outbreak.

Wages for July and August 2020 were deferred to ease cashflow burdens, but as per trade union agreements the outstanding amounts must be paid to players by owners Suning by February 16.

In the midst of ongoing takeover talks, Inter’s board met with playing and coaching staff to assure them that all existing agreements would remain in place and payments would be made on time.

However, Suning are thought to be seeking a second deferral on wages for November and December and part of the meeting was to discuss the possibility of extending the deadline for paying salaries within that period.

Suning are currently in negotiations with BC Partners to sell a majority stake in Inter, but insist that all agreements will be honoured during the negotiation period.
