Reports over the past week or so in the Italian media have brought Andrea Radrizzani back into the picture for Inter Milan.
The gist of the story is that the businessman’s long term interest in the Serie A club could come to fruition in the coming months. Radrizzani would dispense with the rest of his Leeds United shares, and those funds would help him finance a deal for Inter.
There’s two problems he faces along the way. The first, and the most pressing right now, is Leeds United remaining in the Premier League.
If they don’t then the value of the Elland Road side would drop dramatically and therefore heavily impact the funds available to Radrizzani.
Then he has to hope that the competition for Inter isn’t too strong for him, in terms of other bidders having deeper pockets and access to much larger amounts of money.
FCInterNews present a potential problem in that regard, reporting there’s renewed interest from a group of Bahrain investors, with the group called Investcorp.
They’re getting ‘more and more intense’ for Inter Milan, which obviously isn’t great for Radrizzani’s hopes.
