Massimo Moratti says goodbye to Inter, and believes the Suning Group will invest on the transfer market.
The former President has sold his remaining 30 per cent stake, as the Chinese conglomerate has acquired close to 70 per cent of the Nerazzurri.
“I’m very pleased that there’s been a good outcome,” Moratti told FCInterNews.
Massimo Moratti says goodbye to Inter, and believes the Suning Group will invest on the transfer market.
The former President has sold his remaining 30 per cent stake, as the Chinese conglomerate has acquired close to 70 per cent of the Nerazzurri.
“I’m very pleased that there’s been a good outcome,” Moratti told FCInterNews.
“I just spoke to [current President] Erick Thohir and the chairman’s son, who is a really nice lad. I thanked them for their very kind words and wished them luck for the new Inter which will come.
“Like all fans, I’m expecting there to be a raise [of the club’s level]. It will be done through their decisions, but I think that’s what they have in mind.
“Will I stay as an advisor? No, but I’d like to be friendly with the new owners, and especially Thohir. For the rest, we’ll see, but I don’t think they have any need for an advisor.
“A final farewell? It’s final when something exits your heart, I’m connected from that point of view, so it’s not final.”
The Beneamata failed to qualify for the Champions League in 2015-16, and Moratti was asked whether this new investment will fund a big transfer campaign.
“I think so, the will to do it is there. With the change of ownership we’ll be able to discuss the clauses with UEFA [Financial Pair Play] and that should give more freedom.
“The agreement with the club and with UEFA could bring big signings and also allow us to hold on to great players.”
