According to Il Giornale, an American investment fund is ready to invest in Inter, either by buying a majority stake in the club or joining Suning as a minority shareholder.
There have been several reports over the last few years on Inter’s potential sale although Suning have always insisted that they want to keep the club.
The latest report on the matter comes from Friday’s edition of Il Giornale claiming that Goldman Sachs and Raine Group have been sounding out the market for more than two years, looking for a potential investor who could help Suning or buy the club from the Chinese company.
The report doesn’t offer too many details but claims that the situation will be more precise in two weeks, with an unknown American investment fund ready to invest in the Serie A giants and potentially invest in the club by the end of the season.
Il Giornale claims Suning are ready to sell the club for €1.2b, the same fee paid by RedBird to acquire Milan last summer.
However, not having received concrete offers over the last few years, the Zhang family could lower their asking price to make the deal more feasible.
