Alfredo Pedullà, speaking to Sportitalia, commented on CEO Giorgio Furlani's words regarding Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Roberto De Zerbi’s candidacy for the AC Milan bench:
"Together with Paratici, they have identified the man, but now they need to determine the other steps, which are not just bureaucratic. Furlani’s words about Ibrahimovic seem like formalities to me. One day, they will explain to us what his actual role is."

On the dilemma of the future coach at Milan, Pedullà said:
"De Zerbi is dealing with a complicated situation at Marseille, and he has also responded to some criticism directed at him. Qualification for the Champions League is now at risk. If you ask me whether he is a coach suited for Milan, I’d say yes, but there are several factors at play, primarily his contract with Marseille. We will discuss it again when we get into the heart of the coaching matter."
