Foot – Market – OM
Despite the many denials of Frank McCourt, Andrea Zanon, financial advisor and connoisseur of the Middle East, ensures that the PIF is still targeting OM.
For many months, Frank McCourt continues to deny the rumors surrounding the sale of theIF. « I have said this many times. I’m not going anywhere. I like OM. I love Marseille. The team is playing very, very well now. We have reached our cruising speed. We’re building a club that can really win. Our goal is to be on the podium by the end of the year and be able to play in the Champions League. I would be very disappointed if we didn’t », He confided recently at the microphone of France 24. And yet, Andrea Zanon, financial advisor and connoisseur of the Middle East, ensures that the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund, which has just bought Newcastle, also plans to take over theInter Milan and … theIF.
“With the acquisition of Inter Milan, which adds to the potential acquisitions of the French team in Marseille”
« The acquisition of these teams is also part of the priority strategic investments of the vision 2030 of Mohammed Ben Salman, which constitutes the master plan of the vision and the economic transformation of Saudi Arabia. The PIF leverages the huge cash flow generated from oil revenues to diversify the Saudi economy away from hydrocarbons and invest in sports, tourism and recreation, among others. It would have been unthinkable before Crown Prince MBS took power in 2017 and once this buyout is made public Inter will become the richest team in the world. Under the leadership of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman, Saudi Arabia is aggressively diversifying its economy. With the acquisition of Inter Milan, which adds to the potential acquisitions of the French team Marseille, as well as an unknown leading Brazilian team, Saudi Arabia aims to become a major player in international football. », He confides in an interview with the‘International Business Times.
