According to Milannews.it, journalist Luca Serafini discussed potential changes to Milan's management on his channel.

The journalist stated: "The sporting director is a crucial figure within the club because they act as a link between the club, the technical staff, and the team. Everyone in this role must be able to resolve problems and possess a deep understanding of the daily operations of a football team.

More specifically, the sporting director isn't just someone who agrees with the coach on which players to buy; selling players is particularly important. Selling players helps the club both financially and strategically, as the funds create more operational space. Coincidentally, the only season in recent years when Milan sold players well—even very well—was with the help of Ilie Tare. The sporting director must understand this."

"All the best football executives have always told me that true skill lies not in buying players or accurately identifying star players, because misjudgments can happen, but in never making mistakes when selling players. If a player doesn't perform in their first season at Milan, but you still believe in them, you must structure the loan clauses effectively so that by the end of the season, you can decide whether to recall them or genuinely monetize them.

But Milan is content with breaking even. This club doesn't make truly strategic transfers; they make trades. Otherwise, Reijnders could have been sold for 80 to 90 million euros, not 55 million, which is the crux of the whole matter."
