100 Days. 14 weeks. 3.5 months. Rewind time by these numbers and it was the day Inter Milan became Scudetto Champions for the first time in 10 years, putting the ‘Pazza’ ghosts of Inter to bed along with the taunts. 

The heavy investment had paid off, the 12m per annum gamble on bringing serial winner Antonio Conte to the San Siro paid off. Abiding by his demanding, expensive needs to build a Nerazzurri team capable of a Scudetto win paid off. Spending £266 million in two years, all, paid off. For all the decisions and gambles Suning took in gaining success, they are reversibly paying off the large expenditure spent to achieve their goal.

Inter fans have barely had time to sing and dance about their success before what is quickly unravelling as somewhat of a yard sale of the club’s prized possessions. The war machine has been victorious and is now selling off its most formidable parts.
