"Some big decisions are coming for AC Milan at the end of another turbulent campaign, and one could be a change in sporting director. La Gazzetta dello Sport report that while Milan are waiting to determine their European destiny, the movement in the background continues. It's not just about players either but also directors who could move around in a sort of carousel."
"Decisions have been postponed at Milan until the season ends, but they will also concern whether or not to retain the current organisational structure. Last summer, when CEO Giorgio Furlani decided to add a sporting director, Tony D'Amico was among the candidates. The Atalanta man was reported by many to be top of the list, but in the end Igli Tare arrived. Now, after a year, he is at risk."
"He provided Milan with the leadership of Luka Modric, but the larger expenses haven't paid off. That's why D'Amico is watching the situation with interest. Turning back to Tony? D'Amico could soon be free to choose his own destiny as he is close to parting ways with Atalanta. CEO Luca Percassi said on Monday: "I have an extraordinary relationship with him, I know very well what he has achieved in recent years in Bergamo.""
"I thank him and I realise that, like players, he too could be courted. There are still two games to go, and perhaps our relationship could end, but our mutual respect will last forever." These words hint at a separation. Having joined in 2022 from Hellas Verona, D'Amico has been one of the key figures in the last four years at Atalanta. Those four seasons brought a Europa League title to Bergamo, a Coppa Italia final, and two Champions League qualifications."
Milan face major decisions at season end, including whether to keep their current organizational structure. While European outcomes are still pending, internal movement continues, potentially involving directors as well as players. After CEO Giorgio Furlani added a sporting director last summer, Igli Tare arrived, but his position is now at risk after a year. Tony D'Amico, previously considered for the role, is being monitored because he may be nearing departure from Atalanta. Atalanta leadership under D'Amico delivered a Europa League title, a Coppa Italia final, and Champions League qualifications, alongside a record of profitable player sales at Hellas Verona.
