Inter are braced for a summer of difficult decisions on the transfer market, according to a leading Italian broadcaster today.
Sky Sport Italia said the Nerazzurri needed to reduce their wage bill before next season, with their squad earning a total of more than €100 million.
Inter will spend the next few months looking to sell those players who have not played much this season, but then they must move on high earners – including some players who were crucial to winning the Serie A title.
The report warned that sacrifices would be necessary, although everything will depend on what offers arrive and whether they meet Inter’s valuations for players.
Antonio Conte will play a crucial role in making the tough decisions for next season, with Inter’s boss set to be ‘the first captain’ who will manage the group through this difficult period.
Inter’s squad will need to be changed or renovated and Conte must have the desire to manage a team which could have several different players next season.
Everything is linked to what Conte will want to do and how he will digest certain plans Inter have in mind.
