Athletic: Kirovski in advanced talks over role involving Milan’s second team

By Ben Dixon -

Reports emerged recently that AC Milan were in talks with Jovan Kirovski, and a recent report has stated that they have now reached an advanced stage, and new information has come to light about the role he may play.

According to what is being reported by The Athletic, the former LA Galaxy Technical Director is in advanced talks to join the Rossoneri, and with it being reported that talks had been in progress for some time, this is not unexpected news.

However, what his role within the club could entail is new information. Earlier, it had been reported that he would work in the market sector of the club alongside Ibrahimovic, Geoffrey Moncada and Antonio D’Ottavio.

Whilst he still may be involved within the market sector of the club, The Athletic have reported that he will instead oversee Milan’s second team, which has been an idea in the pipeline for several months now.

This will not be unfamiliar territory for him, though. When he first became LA Galaxy’s Technical Director, he was instrumental in creating their USL affiliate team, LA Galaxy II, which sounds extremely familiar.

‘Los Dos’ became the club’s method of in-house development, creating links from their youth teams, to the senior teams. Furthermore, Chris Klein, the former LA Galaxy president, stated that the team would be instrumental in bridging gaps between their academy and senior squad.
