Sky: Galliani's return vs. Furlani or Ibrahimovic in charge - three scenarios for Milan's future

"On the pitch, over the next two weeks, Milan are playing for their place in the next edition of the UEFA Champions League. However, away from the field there continues to be a lot of speculation about major changes to the management too, fuelled by Cardinale's pledge for a full-scale evaluation."

"It's no secret that this situation worsened three years ago with the dismissal of Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara. Since then, the former Elliott man and current CEO Giorgio Furlani has always had a strong decision-making influence, for better or for worse. A few months ago, Cardinale refinanced the vendor loan, thus paying off his debt to Elliott. For the first time in three years, RedBird's president can actually design his own leadership team, and there are three scenarios."

"Scenario one: Furlani remains. The first hypothesis is that Furlani weathers the turbulence - with all of the protests and petitions of recent days calling for his resignation - and continues to maintain a central role. In this case, Sky report, there would be a new coach arriving to replace Allegri. It would be a profile similar to Bologna's Vincenzo Italiano, and also a new sporting director similar to Tony D'Amico would replace Igli Tare."

"Scenario two: Power to Ibra. Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been very active in making it known that he intends to take control of the situation. So, he could be trusted to lead the project alongside Geoffrey Moncada. The Swede would choose a new coach and sporting director. In this case, for the latter it would be a profile similar to Paratici, currently contractually tied to Fiorentina. While waiting for a final decision from Cardinale, Ibrahi"

Milan have two weeks of matches to secure a place in the next UEFA Champions League edition. Off the pitch, speculation continues about major management changes driven by Cardinale’s pledge for a full-scale evaluation. The power struggle at Casa Milan is described as crucial because uncertainty extends beyond the coach to who leads the sporting side. The situation worsened three years ago after Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara were dismissed, leaving CEO Giorgio Furlani with strong decision-making influence. After Cardinale refinanced the vendor loan and paid off Elliott’s debt, RedBird’s president could design his own leadership team. Three scenarios are outlined: Furlani staying central with new coach and sporting director appointments; Zlatan Ibrahimovic taking control alongside Geoffrey Moncada; and a third scenario not fully shown in the provided text.
