Suning are attracting interest from ‘a pool of American investors’ at Inter, according to a report in the Italian media today.
Gazzetta dello Sport’s print edition said the investors could join forces through one or more funds and invest around €250 million into the Nerazzurri.
Suning could potentially sell LionRock Capital’s 31.05% stake in the club to those investors, with the ‘moment of truth’ expected at the end of April or start of May.
Inter’s majority shareholders would remain in charge of the club whatever happened, the Milan-based paper reported.
Suning have been reportedly in talks lately with Fortress over a loan deal, but Gazzetta said the US investment group were gradually disappearing from the scene.
In the meantime, Inter are expected to end the current financial year with a loss of around €130 million (an increase from €102.4 million last year), after the club’s board recorded a €62.7 million loss in the second half of 2020.
