Inter Milan owners Oaktree are reportedly ready to let the club management offer Henrikh Mkhitaryan a new contract.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the American fund is ready to make an exception to the club’s new policy.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan has less than six months left to run on his current contract.
Furthermore, the Armenian midfielder turned 37 in January.
As such, Inter had little interest in offering him a new deal until recently.
However, things have changed.
Inter Milan Owners Oaktree to Offer Henrikh Mkhitaryan New Contract
Oaktree’s new policy focuses on lowering the squad’s average age.
Additionally, they’re reducing long-term commitments to players in the twilight of their careers.
Therefore, players like Matteo Darmian, Francesco Acerbi, Yann Sommer, and Stefan de Vrij are likely to leave San Siro.
Indeed, they’ll all be out of contract in June, with Inter reluctant to renew their deals.
Yet, that doesn’t apply to Mkhitaryan, who has played a prominent role in Cristian Chivu’s system this season.
Instead, Oaktree now appears willing to bend the rules and grant an exception.
I don’t think you guys fully grasp how professional and smart Inter’s management is. If they’ve decided Henrikh is worth keeping for another season, it’s because they’ve run the numbers. These are business-minded people who know exactly what’s profitable for the club, and they don’t spend a single dollar unless they expect at least two in return
I am afraid they will make more of these exceptions…we are a real safe haven for those above 35
Oaktree will do everything to avoid spending, sommers contract will be the next to extend and then Damian and acerbi up next.
Next year he’ll be fried.
I mean he is performing good. Why not? Specially as a bachup
Nice. And he will be oldest goalscorer of Inter. 🙂
