At Casa Milan, the search for a new sporting director continues at a slow pace but with persistent direction. Giorgio Furlani is working on identifying the right profile, and also the right moment, in an effort to start planning the new season. But, there is still much to do.
What is AC Milan CEO Giorgio Furlani's strategy?
Giorgio Furlani's strategy seems quite clear: Tony D'Amico is his choice, but direct contacts can only take place at the end of the season, given that Atalanta does not yet have the arithmetic certainty of participating in the next Champions League. The Rossoneri CEO cannot afford the risk of paying the price for this wait-and-see strategy, of being left with the classic "matchstick," so he keeps all other options alive: he has met with Igli Tare twice and maintains contact, tries to establish a connection with Giovanni Manna, in addition to considering foreign options, as pointed out by Calcio Mercato.
Did AC Milan make new contacts with Fabio Paratici?
The search for the new sporting director is primarily being led by Giorgio Furlani but does not exclude the contribution of other figures at the top of the Rossoneri pyramid. And there is fresh news, from just a few hours ago, of a new direct contact between Gerry Cardinale and Fabio Paratici. According to what has been reported by Calciomercato.com, the RedBird owner had a video call with the former Tottenham executive, during which he reiterated strong interest as well as a request to be updated on his situation.
Italian outlet, Radio Rossonera, through Simone Cristao, reveals that a face-to-face meeting took place on Easter Monday on Lake Como. Interesting signals that reopen a discussion that seemed closed just a month ago.
