Inter have released an official statement denying reports that club president Erick Thohir is looking to sell his shares in the Nerazzurri.
The Indonesian businessman bought his 70 per cent stake in the club back in 2013, however, recent claims suggest that he is already looking to sell up and bring fresh investment to the Milanese giants.
“FC Internazionale categorically denies that the president and majority shareholder Erick Thohir is considering the possibility of selling his 70 per cent stake or a part of it,” a statement read on Inter’s official website.
“As part of a well-planned mid- to long-term business strategy, the club has asked Goldman Sachs to explore the possibility of identifying potential future commercial partners in Asia. This is a normal procedure given the huge growth of investment in sports, and football in particular, in Asia and China specifically.”
“The club remains committed to a return to Europe, a clear target to compete at the highest levels of club competitions.”
