Inter won't pay 40 million. No way in hell. They were limited financially 7 months ago and now they have 40 million for Rakitić
.
In the end, they will try to lower the price or sign him on loan with no obligation to buy. It's very possible that they call this off in June. We should try and use this to lure the likes of Chelsea and United into a bidding war.
If we learned anything from the Rafinha case, it's don't do business with Inter.
Unless, they will be shipping Icardi. In that case, we should ask for more, like Dortmund and Liverpool did for Dembouz and Cou when we were loaded with Neymoney. If they are loaded, we should ask for at least 60 (30% overpaying player's actual value, like us in Dembele case).
