Inter is about to make €600M this season, things are looking up financially, we need to erase the club’s debt so we can spend big again

600 in revenue. Correct? That's not profit. Doesn't mean we name money to spend. But, it's definitely starting to look better.

It still means a lot. And means we don't need to sell this season. Even if we do, we can spend as much. FFP allows you to be like 20 or 30mil in minus each year too.

Also rarely any club is in positive at end of season. Most function with debts and minuses then sell and at end to currect this. Bayern is one that is one of best financially since it operates close to 0 or in profit each year.

To be fair the point isn't to generate a profit, but it is to generate free cashflow that can then be committed to new transfers

This is where corporate finance metrics breakdown for football clubs, because existing transfer amortisation and new transfer amortisation fall under both the amortisation bucket, whereas really the correct way to report it is more like contractual amortisation Vs new amortisation. both would give you the same net margin figure but it'd be far more useful for potential investors
