Rome based newspaper Corriere dello Sport have brought more news regarding Erick Thohir and the sale of his 31.05% shares in Inter to a private equity Hong Kong-based investment fund.

The private Hong Kong fund, that is close to Suning, have denied the circulating media rumours that they are willing to purchase the club outright for a figure of around €1 billion.

Anyhow, the Inter owning Zhang family have no intentions of selling the majority they hold in the club. Instead, they wish to bring in a new partner which will mean more money in to the club that could be used for the transfer market and the possible renovation of San Siro.

Suning purchased a majority stake in the Nerazzurri back in the Summer of 2016 from the Indonesian tycoon and have drastically improved the financial situation of Inter in the time since with the end of their financial fair play settlement agreement in sight.
