Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara will continue, with all reasonable certainty, to be Milan 's transfer men . The contract of the two, as is known, is due to expire in less than two weeks, writes CalcioMercato.it.
RedBird's chief Gerry Cardinale is absolutely aware how important the two Italian directors are. He wants to keep them because he knows that they are the architects of the recent success along with coach Stefano Pioli. But, the renewal is yet to arrive.
According to what is reported by Calciomercato.it, one of the issues that slows down the closing for the renewal is linked to the margins of autonomy, without having to wait for excessive endorsements and without having to wait for financial bureaucracies that slow down operations.
In fact, Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara want more power within the club, meaning they want to move forward with certain operations without having to wait for extra confirmations because speed is indeed needed in the transfer market and even to some extent, some rapacity.
The two directors do not want to be in the same situation that they are living right now with Noa Lang's transfer. Everything is done for the 23-year-old but there is some slowing down that is causing discontent. This may mean that there could be some other clubs willing to swoop in and overtake AC Milan quickly in the deal for Lang. This is why Maldini and Massara want more power in making the decisions when it comes to signings and that is their request for their renewals. Talks are still ongoing.
