After Inter Milan eliminated Barcelona and advanced to the Champions League final, the Nerazzurri once again stepped onto the decisive stage of Europe, and had the opportunity to give it a "reversal" possibility for its regrets two seasons ago, which made fans particularly excited and became a key turning point in reversing the club's 28-year financial difficulties. According to exclusive disclosure by the authoritative Italian financial media "Football Finance", Inter Milan is expected to achieve its first operating profit since the Morati era in 1995, creating a financial milestone in the club's century-old history.

You should know that no money is the main problem of this century-old store in the past twenty years. It is not only difficult to lose money this season, but it is indeed a turning point and brings new hope to the club.

Excellent results, helping Inter Milan commercial promotion

Under the planning of Inzaghi Jr., the Nerazzurri showed strong dominance in two-line combat this season. He defeated Bayern Munich, Barcelona and other European giants in the Champions League, and returned to the final stage after two years. Although the Serie A arena was crossed by Naples, he performed well. Compared with their performance of ending in the top 16 in the 2022-23 Champions League, the increase in the bonus share of the event brought about by the increase in the European Cup points coefficient this season has exceeded 30%, which is their key assistant to improve their business model development opportunities.

According to the latest financial model of UEFA, Inter Milan will win at least 132 million euros in the Champions League (some say 137 million, the calculation caliber difference), breaking the record of Italian clubs' single-season European competition revenue. This figure is 20% higher than the original record (110 million euros) held by Juventus in 2016-17, and is even more than the club's UEFA Champions League revenue last season.

In addition, with the qualification to participate in the 2025 Reorganized Club Cup, the club has locked in a guaranteed income of 20 million euros. If the group breaks through, the income will climb to the 40 million euros. This is almost an "unthinkable" huge sum for Inter Milan.

Three-dimensional revenue, the overall development model is correct

When the Meazza Stadium continues to be full, Inter Milan's ticket revenue this season has shown explosive growth. The single game against Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals generated 14.7 million euros, setting a new box office record for Italian football matches; Milan's two-line battles contributed 13.4 million euros; the key battles with Bayern and Juventus generated a total of 45 million euros in box office revenue. The total ticket revenue for the season is expected to exceed the 85 million euro mark, an increase of 7.6% over the previous season. This result is indeed very gratifying. In terms of broadcast sharing, the club locks in the Serie A basic sharing of 90 million euros, and with the allocation of bonuses for the Champions League market pool, media copyright revenue is expected to account for 38% of the club's total revenue. Driven by multiple returns, Inter Milan's operating income this fiscal year is expected to exceed 500 million euros, becoming the second Serie A team to enter the "500 million club" after Juventus.

Professional guarantee

According to Deloitte's 2024 Football Wealth Report, Real Madrid (1.08 billion) and Manchester City (1.014 billion) lead the revenue list, and Tottenham (720 million) ranks tenth. Inter Milan is indeed a gap with them, but the financial health process has been recognized by the capital market. Club CFO Antonello revealed: "Through event bonus leverage, sponsorship system optimization and cost control, our profit before interest and tax (EBIT) has achieved positive growth. "

Marlotta also expressed confidence in the talks that for Inter Milan, this is a double successful season for sports competition and commercial development. Sports industry analyst Marco Bellini pointed out: "The brand premium and 2025 Club World Cup seats brought by the Champions League final provide Inter Milan with an excellent window for commercial development. Its franchised commodity sales and digital media business have more than 20% growth space. "

From the deficit quagmire of the Morati era in 1995, to the operational innovation after Zhang Kangyang took the helm, to the participation of Oak Capital in the Nerazzurri, they are writing a new paradigm of coordinated development of competitive achievements and commercial value. When the team attacks the fourth Big Ear Cup in team history, the victory of this financial comeback may be more profound than the victory or defeat on the court. This is also what fans want to see.
