The collapse of the Super League project, with the initial exit of the 6 big English clubs, led AC Milan to reflect on whether to start a legal battle against UEFA or accept the loss.
In the end, as reported in today's edition of Corriere dello Sport, the Rossoneri owners preferred to reopen a constructive dialogue and accept the terms and conditions of UEFA.
This was done to protect the team and the club. For the club, it would have been harmful, writes the newspaper, to continue in such arm wrestling contest.
