Corriere writes that 20% of the club’s shares could be sold for a fee of between €70m and €100m.

This would mean former President Massimo Moratti would sell six per cent of his remaining shares and Thohir would give up 14 per cent of his, leaving them with 23.5% and 56% of the club’s shares respectively.
