The headline of QS this morning states that three Milan players to leave if the Rossoneri do not qualify for the Champions League as it would be a nightmare no one wants to experience.
A fifth-place finish means Milan will be out of the rich Champions League places, and it is paradoxical to think how Milan was able to throw away everything they had earned in the first part of the championship when they were in the winter champions.
The Champions qualification to the Rossoneri is too important to give it up for the eighth consecutive year and a lack of Champions League football would mean Milan will not be able to keep the trio of Donnarumma, Calhanoglu, and captain Romagnoli in the squad, who would be sacrificed in terms of the transfer market.
