Finance Notes: Inter Milan President Reportedly Looking To Sell Stake

Inter Milan President Erick Thohir is reportedly looking to sell his 30% stake in the club. According to Italian media, Thohir is seeking a minimum of €150M ($173.6M) for his shares in Inter, thereby valuing the club at €500M ($579M). The Indonesian's role with the club has been "increasingly marginalised" since Suning Group's takeover in the summer of '16, despite still holding the official title of president (FOOTBALL ITALIA, 6/19).

Finnish mobile developer Critical Force announced it raised $6.3M in funding from public grant organization Business Finland. Critical Force will use the funding "in part to grow the esports market for Critical Ops," a mobile first-person shooter (THE ESPORTS OBSERVER, 6/19).
