Milan Expected to Part Ways with a Host of Players | OneFootball

Whoever the next Milan director will be, he’ll face the daunting task of making up for the missed Champions League prize money. The Rossoneri risk not qualifying for any continental competition, which will inevitably lead to several departures, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.

On the other hand, most exits match the management’s intentions, which isn’t satisfied with the performances of several players. Theo Hernandez is the most valuable piece to be on his way. Como offered €40M plus add-ons in January. The bids could be lower in the summer. Mike Maignan and Rafael Leao won’t be shopped and would be sold only to elite sides and for a boatload of money.

Fikayo Tomori will probably sign off on leaving Milan, which he didn’t do in January. He hadn’t started in two months before the last match. Yunus Musah has starred more regularly, but he might flee because he hasn’t settled in completely.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek could pay the price for a hellish season from the injury standpoint. Emerson Royal’s future might depend on Kyle Walker and Alex Jimenez‘s one. Instead, Samuel Chukwueze is on the chopping block since he hasn’t lived up to expectations after a big-money move.

The Rossoneri will restart from Strahinja Pavlovic and Matteo Gabbia in the back. They are open to keeping Malick Thiaw, but it’ll hinge on the interest in him.

Our Take on Milan

It’s early for these lists given what’s going on with their front office, but it’ll be more of a prestige problem than an economic one. They can trim a lot of fat without hurting the squad.
