Milan Owner Cardinale Reviews Club Organization, Labels Missing UCL a Failure

AC Milan owner Gerry Cardinale has announced a comprehensive review of the club's organizational structure during the upcoming summer transfer window. In a rare interview addressing rising tensions at San Siro, Cardinale confirmed he has already held discussions with head coach Massimiliano Allegri regarding the team's recent downturn. The Rossoneri have won only one of their last five Serie A matches, jeopardizing their Champions League qualification spot as they sit level on points with Roma with two games remaining. Cardinale explicitly stated that failing to qualify for the UEFA Champions League would constitute a 'failure,' despite acknowledging the team's strong performance for most of the season. He defended his management against criticisms that prioritize profitability over sporting success, asserting that winning remains the absolute priority. While expressing disappointment with the current form and fan anger, Cardinale urged supporters to back the squad in the final crucial matches. He highlighted the club's historic positive cash flow but admitted that financial resources must be better utilized to ensure competitiveness in both domestic and European competitions.
