Report – Oaktree Ready To Make Exception To Inter Milan New Policy To Extend Veteran Midfielder’s Contract | OneFootball

Inter Milan owners Oaktree are reportedly ready to let the club management offer Henrikh Mkhitaryan a new contract.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the American fund is ready to make an exception to the club’s new policy.

Furthermore, the Armenian midfielder turned 37 in January.

As such, Inter had little interest in offering him a new deal until recently.

However, things have changed.

Oaktree’s new policy focuses on lowering the squad’s average age.

Additionally, they’re reducing long-term commitments to players in the twilight of their careers.

Therefore, players like Matteo Darmian, Francesco Acerbi, Yann Sommer, and Stefan de Vrij are likely to leave San Siro.

Indeed, they’ll all be out of contract in June, with Inter reluctant to renew their deals.

Yet, that doesn’t apply to Mkhitaryan, who has played a prominent role in Cristian Chivu’s system this season.
