Inter defender Alessandro Bastoni’s agent Tullio Tinti has slammed the Nerazzurri’s behaviour. ‘Things need to be done in a normal way’.
The 22-year-old’s has taken big steps in recent months and his representative reveals he reached an agreement over an improved deal four months ago.
But the Nerazzurri’s financial problems has stalled the signature and the agent doesn’t approve of the club’s behaviour.
“Another surprise,” Tinti told Il Corriere dello Sport. “For four months we have had an agreement with [CEO Beppe] Marotta, [sporting director Piero] Ausilio and [Alessandro] Antonello.
“Bastoni plays with the contract signed three years ago, despite the fact that he’s been a starter for two seasons and has been called up for the national team.
“There was a promise to bring the salary to a fair level and there was an understanding in February, with lots of confirmation e-mails exchanged.
“The only thing missing was for the President to return from China to formalise everything. Not later than Friday, I was informed that the renewal has not been skipped, but that we must wait for this loan that the club is negotiating to be signed.
“Honestly, this has never happened to me before.”
The agent stressed Bastoni wants to remain but doesn’t exclude the possibility of not renewing the deal.
“Bastoni has the shirt on because he’s an Interista,” he said. “He will respect the agreements because he still has a contract.
“If the club wants to renew at the agreed figures, OK. Otherwise, from July 1, things will change.
“I’ll be clearer: Bastoni and his agent are happy to stay at Inter, but things need to be done in a normal way, like in all other clubs.
“The moment is difficult, and we know it, but this behaviour is not good. If I had done such a thing, pulled back before signing, when everything was in place, Inter would have made an incredible mess.”
