Inter’s owners Suning could secure a loan from Fortress in the next two weeks, according to an Italian broadcaster’s report this evening.
As per Sport Mediaset, Suning and Fortress could agree terms over a €200 million loan, but this would not necessarily rule out Inter being sold at a later date.
In fact, the report goes on to explain that the loan could simply postpone the sale of Inter until the end of this season, when the club’s value could increase dramatically if they achieve what they are widely expected to do in winning the Serie A title.
At that point, the Suning-owning Zhang family could seek fresh investment into the Nerazzurri club, who they have owned for little over four and a half years, either on a minority or majority basis.
A host of parties have been linked with potential investment in Inter including BC Partners, Bain Capital and the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia (PIF).
