"Not having won the Scudetto is a disappointment. And if we don't finish in the top four, it will be a failure. For me, winning is a priority. Always. We were in the top two of the table for much of the year, in contention for the Scudetto. But the ending was below Milan's standards and we threw the season away. I'm disappointed. It happens in sport. But that doesn't make you feel any better. I want to win."
"There's a narrative that I only think about money and not about winning. It's absurd. If you look at my life and my career, I've always won. When the club generates money, I don't take it out. I reinvest it in the team. In players, infrastructure and growth. In the last three years since I took over Milan, we've spent more than any other Serie A team on the market. And that's a fact. Have we spent perfectly? Clearly not."
"It means the Rossoneri go into their final two games of the season against Genoa and Cagliari needing two wins to secure Champions League football. As our latest column analysed last night, there isn't much trust in those at the top to get things right regardless, amid talk of another revolution."
"Cardinale has promised a full-scale review of what isn't working at the club, sending a defiant message to fans. It is once again a turbulent time for Milan at the end of a rollercoaster season. For most of it, there was the illusion that Massimiliano Allegri's men could really push Inter all the way in the title fight, until a run of two wins in eight left them hanging on for the top four."
Milan faces a turbulent end to a rollercoaster season after losing momentum in the title race. The team enters its final two matches against Genoa and Cagliari needing two wins to secure Champions League football. The club’s owner, Gerry Cardinale, says not winning the Scudetto is a disappointment and that missing the top four would be a failure. He rejects claims that Champions League money matters more than winning, stating he reinvests generated revenue into players, infrastructure, and growth. He acknowledges spending has not been perfect and signals a full-scale review of what is not working, while emphasizing a priority on winning.
