Inter players celebrate after scoring against Feyenoord

    Key Takeaways:

  • Inter secured €350M funding via a private bond placement in the US
  • The new bond will replace a high-yield note due in 2027
  • Oaktree says the deal shows long-term commitment to financial stability

Inter have secured €350 million in funding through a private placement of secured bonds in the United States, maturing in 2030. The amount will be used for the early repayment of a high-yield bond due in 2027, the Champions League finalists confirmed.

The bonds were placed through institutional investors and issued via Inter’s media company, which oversees the Serie A club’s broadcasting and sponsorship business.

Last year, American investment firm Oaktree Capital Management took control of Inter after the club’s Chinese majority shareholder failed to make a €395 million payment.

The club stated that the debt restructuring would improve its financial standing.

“In comparison to the previous bond, the lower amount and lower cost of capital achieved through the private placement represent another step in Oaktree’s commitment to the long-term success and financial stability of the club,” Inter said in a statement on their website.

Earlier this month, the Italian side had been expected to buy back the outstanding bonds.
