AC Milan's directors Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara are set to leave AC Milan. An era ends. Now, a new era begins, slightly breaking away from the recent past. That's why the negotiation to bring Arnautović to Milan risks falling through definitively.
The first rumours shared by Calciomercato.com all point in this direction: Arnautović is considered a strong forward, a born leader, but also a profile that does not align with the club's philosophy. Investing 7/8 million for a 34-year-old center forward is not the right investment, according to RedBird's philosophy.
New ideas for the attack: the new Milan really likes Marcus Thuram. The forward from the French national team will leave Borussia Moenchengladbach on a free transfer and has all the technical and athletic characteristics for the style of football that Pioli has in mind (increasingly involved in market decisions).
There is a lot of competition, and the negotiation still needs to be set up, but Milan will try to bring Thuram to Milanello next season.
