Allegri’s Relationship with Furlani Raises Doubts
Milan insiders have revealed that Allegri may not remain at San Siro beyond the summer, pointing to strained relations with Giorgio Furlani, the club’s CEO. Although Allegri is under contract until June 2027, there is a clause for automatic renewal through 2028 if Milan achieve Champions League qualification this term.
There have been reports of tension between Allegri and Furlani, suggesting that Allegri’s departure is possible even if Champions League football is secured. Allegri and Furlani have reportedly met on several occasions in recent weeks to discuss Milan’s strategic direction, but are said to hold differing views on the club’s future.
Tare’s Role and Milan’s Transfer Strategy in Focus
Igli Tare is also under evaluation after a series of summer acquisitions failed to deliver the expected results. In particular, big-money signings Christopher Nkunku and Ardon Jashari have not paid dividends, placing further scrutiny on the director’s position.
Tony D’Amico of Atalanta remains a target for Milan’s leadership, following prior interest last summer. Despite this, Atalanta are reportedly still reluctant to allow their sporting director to depart.
