While waiting for news on the sporting director and head coach, AC Milan are looking at potential signings and Miguel Gutierrez is a target. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below), there will be a lot of talk about sales in the coming weeks, especially without Champions League football. However, Milan will also have to think about incomings, starting with a left-back in case Theo Hernandez leaves. So, while waiting for the arrival of the new director, the scouting area are looking at full-backs. Nuno Tavares (Lazio) and Maxim De Cuyper (Bruges) have been joined by Miguel Gutierrez in…
Christian Pulisic is not best pleased with AC Milan’s current situation and a summer exit cannot be ruled out. Milan’s defeat in the Coppa Italia final against Bologna means that the chance of a place in the Europa League vanished in addition to a trophy. A top five finish in the league is virtually impossible, so now a very important summer rebuild awaits, and with a hole in the accounts of around €100m. According to Tuttosport, this means that there could be some rather major outgoings, in order to plug the gap. Tijjani Reijnders is among the obvious candidates to…
Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Manchester City will present a first bid for Tijjani Reijnders in the coming days, but it won’t be a simple deal. Milan missing out on the top four will leave a hole in the budget, at least compared to recent seasons. That means the management have a dilemma of sorts: they must decide whether to try plug the gap with sales, or whether to double down on the current core and invest to build around them. Reijnders has been one of the stand-out performers since his arrival at Milan in the 2023 summer mercato, having…
At the current stage, it is a real threat and not a proper negotiation yet. In recent days, Manchester City has informed Milan of their strong interest in Reijnders. A concrete interest that will become a real mission at the end of the season. Pep Guardiola wants the Dutch talent and wants him already for the Club World Cup which will begin on June 13. The idea of the Citizens would be to put on the table an offer of over 70 million euros to try to convince the club. A decidedly significant sum that could make Giorgio Furlani, CEO…
Former AC Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi has taken aim at his old club and it’s management. Sacchi was reacting to Wednesday night’s Coppa Italia final defeat to Bologna. The loss leaves Milan on the brink of missing European qualification altogether with the Rossoneri sitting eighth on the Serie A table. Sacchi wrote in his column for La Gazzetta dello Sport: “Seeing Milan in such bad shape makes me very sad, because I am tied to that environment, to the fans, to those colors. Watching the Coppa Italia final, deservedly lost against Bologna, confirmed what I have thought since the beginning…
AC Milan intend to make one final attempt to hire Tony D’Amico from Atalanta, and they want to poach Vincenzo Italiano from Bologna. Milan’s 2024-25 season is drawing to a close, and that in itself is a relief for all involved. The Supercoppa Italiana triumph was a brief ray of sunshine in a campaign that included a potential eighth-place finish, elimination from the Champions League by Feyenoord and a Coppa Italia final defeat. One of the things they will have to make a call on is the head coach, with Sergio Conceicao almost certain to depart the club after just…
On social media, the AC Milan world has been chaotic, to say the least. Fans have taken to Instagram to voice their opinions and outrage over the club’s management and the way the disastrous season has unfolded, especially after the loss in the Coppa Italia final against Bologna 0-1 at the Olimpico stadium. In the latest posts on Instagram, few, very few since the final whistle of the match, all the comments are against the current management, calling for Paolo Maldini. In particular, a GIF of the former Rossoneri captain and executive appears, as if loudly demanding his return after…
Former Rossonero Filippo Galli spoke to Repubblica to comment on Milan’s season: “Many mistakes were made, from the squad construction last summer to the lack of trust given to Fonseca. I struggle to see an identity in this Milan. Even against Bologna, it was the opponents who dictated the game. The team only relies on counterattacks; I would like to see something different. Filippo Galli added: “Milan needs an experienced sporting director, someone who knows Serie A, and who should be given autonomy in making choices. My favorite is Sartori. As for the coach? If the club wants to build…
Roma legend Francesco Totti touched upon the possibility of returning to the club as an executive figure. Present yesterday evening at the Stadio Olimpico to watch the Coppa Italia final between Milan and Bologna, Francesco Totti spoke to TRT Sport, commenting on the evening and dwelling on some topics related to Roma, in particular the future of Claudio Ranieri and his possible return to Trigoria. “Roma has definitely changed with Ranieri,” said the legendary club captain. “Ranieri has brought great enthusiasm and, as we can define, he is a true ‘man of Rome’.” “He has done an extraordinary job,…
On Sunday night, Milan will challenge Roma at the Stadio Olimpico in the penultimate day of the 2024-25 Serie A season. It is a ground that the Rossoneri will not be looking forward to playing on, given they lost the Coppa Italia final at the same venue on Wednesday night. While it remains virtually impossible for Milan to get a Europa or Champions League place in the league, Roma are still very much in the hunt. They sit sixth but just one point behind their city rivals Lazio in fifth and Juventus in fourth, so will be desperately seeking a…
