Inter in retreat with the new sponsor. Fans at Onana: “Stay with us”

APPIANO GENTILE – The first to enter the Suning Training Center was Mkhitaryan, just before 8 in the morning. Then it was the turn of his team-mates who, like him, weren’t busy with their national teams. They also arrived at the Inter training center for the first day of training camp De Vrijfresh from the renewal of the contract, Lautaro, Correa, Sensi and the new signing Bisseck. Lazaro, who returned from loan to Turin, was exchanged by the fans for Thuram. And the Nerazzurri supporters then stopped Onana’s car, begging him not to leave the Nerazzurri club. To the “stay with us André”, the goalkeeper replied with smiles, lending himself to the usual selfies. The other players will join the group on Monday.

The tour in Japan

The first friendly for Inzaghi’s team will be on 18 July at the Pinetina, where they will face the Swiss side Lugano. On 23 July Inter will leave for the Japanese tour, which includes a meeting with Al Nassr of CR7 and the former Brozovic on 27 July, while on 1 August it will be the turn of the test against Paris Saint-Germain. The last friendly already scheduled, to which others could be added, will be on August 9 in Austria, at the Red Bull Arena against Salzburg. Some of the youngsters who took part in the retreat could join the first team: from Fontanarosa to Radu, from Agoumé to Valentin Carboni, ready to undergo medical tests with Monza.

The new sponsor Paramount+

The friendlies will be an opportunity for Inter to wear the new shirts with Paramount+ sponsors. The US media company has taken the place of the cryptocurrency Digitalbits, which has not paid as expected. The Paramount+ logo already appeared on the Nerazzurri shirts during the Champions League final in Istanbul. The new agreement calls for the Americans to pay around 15 million for next season into Inter’s coffers. For now, the partnership is expected to last until June 30, 2024.
