AC Milan have experienced major struggles this season, now at risk of missing out on European football, and the Curva Sud have made it clear that a corporate reset will be needed in the summer.
Ahead of the season, Milan’s goal was to compete for the Scudetto after hiring Paulo Fonseca and making some targeted signings. Fast forward seven months and the manager has left the club, while the Rossoneri are currently not even in the Conference League spot.
The Curva Sud published a strong statement earlier this evening, announcing an initial boycott for Milan-Lazio, and a message was also sent to Gerry Cardinale on the future. If he’s not willing to sell, then at least he has to order a complete reset.
“At the end of the season, a profound corporate RESET will be necessary, the American model proposed up to now has failed from every point of view. Strong choices, important decisions, structural changes with a new command line composed of football men are needed, if we want to seriously rebuild the most glorious club in Italy, bringing the fans back to breathe that Milanism that you have destroyed in recent years,” the statement read.
The relationship between Milan and the fans is now very fragile, so the summer is the only way for the management to salvage the fundamentals before it’s too late. It starts with finding a new sporting director and identifying the right head coach for the project.
