The flames in the city gate spread to the fish in the pond!
The external anger towards Mancini's intentional sabotage in the UEFA Europa League quickly reached Inter's behind-the-scenes owner, Indonesian sports tycoon Toshihiko.
As one of the owners of Indonesia's largest consortium, the Astra International Group, aside from owning two basketball teams in his homeland, Toshihiko is also a shareholder of the NBA's Philadelphia 76ers. In 2012, he also became the major shareholder of the Major League Soccer team, D.C. United.
As a foreign investor, since 2013, after acquiring 80% ownership of Inter from the Moratti family for 280 million euros, Toshihiko has always acted discreetly within Italy's football circles.
He carefully remembers the teachings of his predecessor Moratti, behaving cautiously, and spending extra money every year for networking.
