"Participating in the continent's top tournament would bring in tens and tens of millions (€60-70m, as a rough estimate). This money would also be used to make the squad more competitive."
"Not getting a top four spot could have negative consequences for the permanence of those already wearing red and black. Would the American renew while in his prime without UCL?"
"The same question wouldn't even arise in the case of Robert Lewandowski. The Polish striker would certainly want to take part in the most important showcase if he were to stay in Europe."
AC Milan requires Champions League participation primarily for financial reasons, as missing out could lead to a significant revenue loss of €60-70 million. This funding is essential for enhancing the squad's competitiveness, including potential signings of high-profile players. The absence of Champions League football could deter current stars from renewing contracts and make it challenging to attract new talent. Players like Christian Pulisic and Luka Modric may reconsider their futures if Milan fails to secure a top-four finish in Serie A.
