Inter owners Suning are ready to veto the sale of the club’s most important players this summer, even as they battle mounting financial trouble.
As reported by Il Sole 24 Ore, the Chinese retail conglomerate are under pressure to secure a loan to support the club and are looking to bring in €275 million to cover costs going forward.
Such an amount would see €25m go to Suning directly, whilst €33m would be used to buy out the minority stake owned by LionRock, leaving €120m to meet outstanding costs and requirements.
However, there is concern that Inter may be unable to secure a guarantee for a loan and that shares in the club will not be sufficient, with further guarantees required.
Regardless of this, Suning are determined not to lose star players such as Romelu Lukaku and Nicolo Barella in order to balance the books, and are willing to veto sales of such key figures should offers come in this summer.
