Michael Bolingbroke, Inter’s CEO is on a trip to London and Associated Press picked up some words from him: “He [Fdb] arrived 10 days before the start of the season. So we want to give him time. My job since I joined Inter (in 2012) has always been to bring Inter to success on and off the field.Constantly in the Champions League, to make money, not lose them. The change of ownership from Thohir to Mr. Zhang has accelerated plans. The new owners think that, as a club, we completely underestimated the value of presence in China and we are guilty of not sufficiently exploring the Chinese market. When we sat down to talk to them, they asked us why we did not have more sponsors in Asia. All politics? If it were, they would give priority to not lose money? For European clubs it is very difficult to stay in Asia, unless you do not have a bridge that will open certain doors. If there were no Suning, it would not be possible to have access to business in China. With the access that they have, we now have opportunities that did not exist prior to their arrival. They have already spent a lot of time trying to understand how it worked the system work in our academy.They want the Jiangsu Suning is at the top of the Chinese Super League, not by importing players but by growing them. Bringing Chinese players at Inter? We fail if we do not win trophies. And this can not be done if you compromise the technical level of the team to make good purchases for the sponsors.”
