Inter will include the severance payment to forward Alexis Sanchez in their budget for the 2021-22 fiscal year, taking the losses in that budget to around €140 million.
This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, who report that the Nerazzurri will register the cost of the payment to terminate Sanchez’s deal as part of last season’s budget rather than that of the upcoming year.
Inter will pay Sanchez around €5 million net as an incentive to agree a termination of his contract by mutual consent, which will come to €8 million gross in terms of the cost to the club.
The Chilean’s wages will be offloaded, and given that the player would be set to earn €7 million net on the final year of his deal and the Growth Decree applies to his wages, the total cost saved by the club would be €9 million gross, meaning that the severance payment would still be an overall financial positive.
