Platini claims leaves Inter Milan chiefs fuming
Inter Milan are fuming over claims made by UEFA president Michel Platini about their finances.
Platini stunned the Italian giants when he suggested the Nerazzurri was one of the European sides “with so many debts.”
In a statement, Inter declared yesterday:
"Inter is not a club in debt. With regard to the declarations of Michel Platini, reported in today's Daily Telegraph, F.C. Internazionale responds with clarity to the UEFA president.
"We understand the institutional worries about the economy of European football, but in citing Inter he forgets that our club does not have debts with the banks.
“Inter is not among those clubs that, from this point of view, can worry the UEFA president."
General manager Ernesto Paolillo also made his feelings on Platini’s statements abundantly clear.
“It was a misplaced accusation that we immediately replied to,” he told Radio Radio TV. “Like many clubs, Inter end their financial year by running at a loss, but we have always covered that with increases in capital underwritten by the owners.
“Platini would do well to study our balance sheets and confront them with those of other clubs.
“If he wants to talk about clubs surviving on their own income, then he should discuss that, but he spoke about debts and that is absolutely not the case with Inter.”

he talks gay,he thinks his good enough?
talk bad things about people,but he didn't realize he's even worse.

Platini is a ***** moron - fits well with the rest of the inept money-grabbers in Football Organisations.
Platini is the french word for clown.
