AC Milan fans, management, coaching staff as well as players surely would like nothing more than to redeem the frustrating game against Cagliari by putting on a world class performance in order to beat Atalanta. A return to the Champions League will finally allow the club's project to go further and bring in good financial stability.
If the Rossoneri, however, do not qualify for the competition, the management would be forced to review its plans. there are budgets and purchases, such as that of Dusan Vlahovic, a very expensive striker who is coveted by the market men in Casa Milan, writes La Gazzetta dello Sport.
At Bergamo this weekend, a very big portion of the future is at stake for Milan, such as the loanees confirmations within the squad list: Fikayo Tomori, for example, has become a pillar of Stefano Pioli's system. Would he accept to play for a team that does not participate in the top European competition? Another important player is Brahim Diaz. The Spaniard found himself well at Milanello and another year of loan could be functional for everyone, but even this deal could be hard.
Then, there are other important issues besides the one mentioned, like the contract renewals and above all: Gianluigi Donnarumma's future. Without the Champions League economic revenues, keeping him would be complicated, just like Hakan Calhanoglu, who also would like a high salary.
