As takeover talks continue, Inter President Steven Zhang is determined to remain in position until at least the end of the season to see the club lift the Serie A title.
Zhang and the Suning group are currently in discussions with a range of potential investors, including BC Partners and Fortress, as they look to manage an increasingly difficult financial situation at the club.
However, as reported in today’s newspaper edition of Corriere dello Sport, Zhang will look to either obtain a loan to continue funding the club or will seek a sale of a majority share but delay the completion until May.
The 29-year-old is keen to be at the helm should Inter go on to win a first Scudetto since 2010, with Antonio Conte’s side currently six points clear at the top of the table and unbeaten in nine matches.
Whilst Zhang would look to hold onto the club until the end of the season, the picture becomes less clear from that point and it is believed to be unlikely that Suning will be able to retain majority ownership of Inter going into next season.
