Revealed: How Much Money Inter Milan Will Miss Out On If They Fail To Progress Past Bodo/Glimt In Champions League | OneFootball

Inter Milan’s defeat in Norway has left their Champions League campaign hanging by a thread – and the consequences could be felt far beyond the pitch after losing 3-1 away to Bodo/Glimt.

After losing the first leg, the Nerazzurri must overturn the deficit at San Siro to reach the round of 16.

Indeed, considered a minimum objective set at the start of the season.

Failure to progress would not only represent a sporting disappointment, but also a financial setback.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, at least €20 million is at stake. And that is just from the Round of 16 alone.

The rest of the consideration makes up another huge portion of potential earnings.

Around €11 million would come directly from UEFA prize money.

Meanwhile a packed San Siro for the next round could generate a significant additional gate receipt.

While such income would not replicate last season’s financial boom, it would provide valuable flexibility ahead of a crucial summer.

Inter are expected to refresh parts of their squad, with veteran contracts expiring, including Yann Sommer and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and potential strategic sales, such as Yann Bisseck, under consideration to generate capital gains.
