“We’re not thinking about any signings when we don’t know what resources we have available,” Mirabelli explained to Sky.

“It’s a little bit like when you’re hungry and you’re out of the house, you open your wallet and look inside before deciding whether to go for a sandwich or whether you can go to the restaurant for caviar and champagne."

Last year they thought they were having caviar and champagne, which unfortunately turned out to be urine and feces.

With Elliott Management ready to take over from Yonghong Li, speculation is rife over what comes next for Milan.

The President failed to meet yet another deadline, this time to repay the €32m that he had already missed last month for the increase in capital.

As he now owes Elliott Management Corporation €425m, the American hedge fund can begin the process of repossessing his assets.

It should be noted that they’d only need to repossess the Luxembourg-based holding company rather than AC Milan itself, but the end result would be the same.

Yonghong Li had been in negotiations with several potential buyers, above all Rocco Commisso, but it seems as if Elliott are not inclined towards the Mediacom owner.

A more likely candidate would be Thomas Ricketts, whose family runs the Chicago Cubs and who had also been in talks with Li.

Stephen Ross is another option, patron of the Miami Dolphins American Football team.

There were mystery Russian and Arab figures mentioned too, but the Corriere della Sera notes that now Elliott are pulling the strings, they can open up to other buyers.

The club as it stands now would cost considerably less than the €740m Yonghong Li paid to purchase Milan from Silvio Berlusconi in April 2017.

With that in mind, La Stampa newspaper suggests Elliott might want to run the Serie A side for a year and increase its value before selling on, perhaps with the introduction of €150m to keep the club going.

Their only transfers so far this summer have been free agents and it looks as if that’ll be the case throughout the summer, along with loan deals.

That could mean a change of CEO, scrapping Marco Fassone and director of sport Massimiliano Mirabelli in favour of Umberto Gandini.

It’d be a return for Gandini, who spent 23 years at Milan before walking away to become chief executive of Roma in 2016.

If this Ronaldo things closes and he comes, how the hell are the other teams in Italy going to try and close the gap?

If we do indeed bring Ronaldo, it will officially become BundeSerie A for good.
When you FIF forums for example, they are basically already counting it as 6pts lost.

Essentially it’s like 2nd Place is the new first place for those teams.

Roma is trying. Owner and Director are both very good, I think.

They are trying to do it the right way. Something sustainable long-term with stadium and marketing. Trying to get to our level.

The rest just go to bed at night and pray they wake up in the morning with us in Serie B.

But Italy make it so fucking hard to build stadiums, or earn more from co-owned stadiums.

And then as the league deteriorates they wonder why there is no Italy at the WC.

Imagine being a Milanista now.

Juve on the verge of signing Cristiano Ronaldo and becoming even more a superpower.

inter have somewhat stable management and are making good signings, plus they're back in CL.

Roma growing gradually year by year and becoming self-sustainable.

And then there's their mess. Their owners who bought them last year are frauds. They don't know who their new owners will be. Banned from Europe. And they can't even begin their summer preparations properly because they don't know who'll stay or who'll go.
