In case you didn’t know, Milan isn’t the only football club that RedBird and Gerry Cardinale own. Their first venture into European football was actually Toulouse, buying the club after the relegation to Ligue 2, bringing it to the top tier the following season.
Some reports have suggested that RedBird are looking to move on from their French experiment but that hasn’t happened yet. Collaboration between Toulouse and Milan is very much possible, as such, similarly to Chelsea and Strasbourg.
Bezhani making waves
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, one of the key figures at Toulouse is the sporting director Bezhani. He has made a name for himself in recent years, discovering several players that the French side have been able to sell for good money or, alternatively, will eventually be able to sell.
RedBird are ‘pleased’ with his work and the approach he has taken, which is why he could also be considered for a role at Milan. Indeed, with Igli Tare set to leave this summer, the Rossoneri will need someone else in that role.
Of course, first and foremost, Milan will have to decide a direction before going into the specifics of the personnel.
