AC Milan moved with intelligence, supporting every department on the market in a difficult history phase for global football. The Rossoneri fans through the polls on MilanNews, both social and from the site, have expressed high marks, from 7 to 8 in the report card, rewarding the effort of the club and the attempt of the company to try to the end for the title. But there is a sentence by Paolo Maldini about the Elliott property that helps to understand how the climate within society has changed. Remember the differences on the market a year ago? They have disappeared for months now and Maldini wanted to publicly praise the work of the American property. In the past, Paul has spared no criticism, he has never been tender with anyone when it comes to expressing a judgment. But this time he too understood the effort of the property in a difficult historical moment, where other teams do not pay salaries to employees or risk enrollment in the championship due to lack of funds. In this scenario Maldini said before the match in Bologna. “Ownership allowed us to do what we wanted, of course within certain economic parameters, so we must be grateful for what we have.” Paolo trusted scouting and staff, but Elliott also slightly changed his vision of young people by including experienced people like Kjaer, Ibra and Mandzukic within a year. Young people, but also experienced players.
Milan has never pulled back on investments, and despite spending little, they have always tried to improve the team with targeted additions. Here the skill of the scout department and the preparation of the management come into play and Maldini and Massara, with the support of Gazidis and the owners, are doing really well. Now under with the renewals because Donnarumma and Calhanoglu should be armored as soon as possible, but there is confidence that soon an agreement can be reached for both. The dialogue with Raiola and Stipic, the agents of the two players, has been going on for weeks. The will of Gigio and Hakan is to stay, an economic agreement must be found. But we’re almost there.
Milan is also working already for June, setting up negotiations that can develop over the next few months. Milan’s idea is to take a left-back, a deputy Hernandez. Interest in Matías Viña del Palmeiras is confirmed and the player almost missed out in January. His recruitment will be discussed for the next transfer market as well as that of Thauvin of Marseille, which expires at the end of the season. The Frenchman is very popular and could be the right reinforcement in the role of right winger. The role of attacking midfielder should also be evaluated if Diaz were not to be bought by Real Madrid, there is the Otavio del Porto option, considered very interesting by the club. It would arrive on a free transfer and this would allow the club to have an economic margin to move to other departments.
On Ibrahimovic we just have to wait for what the federal prosecutor will decide but we are exaggerating. This case is talked about every day as if it were the most serious thing in the world, when there are other situations to investigate, such as suspicious capital gains or unpaid salaries. Ibra and Lukaku were both wrong, there is no doubt about this, we will see where the investigation by the Prosecutor’s Office will lead, but Milan is ready to defend Ibra in the appropriate forums if the attacker is accused of racism.
