An absolute rout. AC Milan, whose priority was to return to the Champions League at the end of a 2025-2026 season without European competition, collapsed in the home stretch, ceding its qualifying place to Como. A final defeat at home, where he only took one point in the last 4 matches at San Siro, sealed this cruel fate of a team at the end of its rope, without ideas and soon without direction.
Because according to La Gazzetta dello Sportthis cataclysmic end to the season will have serious consequences. The deputy president, Giorgio Furlani, in office since December 2022, will be dismissed from his position. Technical director Geoffrey Moncada will be sacked (and could bounce back on the Nice side), just like Igli Tare, the sporting director. Three men who had a terrible time representing AC Milan this season to the general public. “The responsibility will fall on Tare, the architect of a catastrophic transfer window with millions spent in vain, on the technical director Moncada and on Furlani, who authorized this expenditure”writes the Italian daily.
Allegri threatened, Ibrahimovic insulted
It is Gerry Cardinale, the boss of RedBird Capital Partners LLC, owner of the club, who will make the decision, and these announcements could come in the coming days. In Italy, apart from the defeat against Cagliari, it is the lack of courage which is shocking since no one from the management spoke out after this bitter setback. Even Massimiliano Allegri, the man who was to bring the Rossoneri back to prominence in Italy, is threatened by Cardinale’s anger.
Who also received jeers from Milan supporters, despite the presence at his side of his alibi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The latter, advisor for Red Bird, had to be escorted to the parking lot, under the insults of the fans. No one is spared, and Gerry Cardinale is expected to be at the turning point regarding future decisions.
