Sky: Milan re-initiate talks with Paratici over sporting director role – the situation

AC Milan could be set for another summer of overhaul regardless of their league finish, with Fabio Paratici’s name back in the picture.

It’s a difficult time for Milan at the moment, amid a climate of protest and a run of two wins in eight. There is now no gap in points to fifth place and the risk of missing out on Champions League football is huge, which would force profound reflections.

Meanwhile, Di Marzio reports that the Rossoneri are considering a change the role of sporting director, which would mean Igli Tare leaving after just one year in the role. Not only that, but Tony D’Amico isn’t the only possible candidate.

He confirms the report from Sky’s Luca Marchetti about Fabio Paratici, claiming that there have been indirect contacts with him as well, despite the fact he has only been at Fiorentina for a few months now.

Close before

As a reminder, Paratici was one of the leading names spoken about last summer when the ownership made the decision to hire a sporting director, a figure that had been missing in the disastrous 2024-25 campaign.

In fact, the former Juventus executive almost got the job, but the final signatures never arrived after weeks of talks. Eventually Tare would arrive, while Paratici recently spoke about what happened and he confirmed that he expected to be appointed before the late U-turn.

  1. Sure, let’s try to hire a SD that was involved in Juventus having points deducted and who himself was suspended, sure.

  2. Change the coach. Allegri is the key responsible of the situation. This team should have easily got to 75-80 points without European competitions and in one of the worst Serie A of the last 20 years.
    Allegri provides close to nothing in terms of tactical tools, he is the worst coach I have seen since Filippo Inzaghi. The performance was sustained by Maignan savings over 10xg and Pulisic scoring at every shot. When those two players normalize performance, we stopped makint points. And don’t tell about solidity. The defensive phase is terrible, super passive, zero pressing, zero raggression.

    1. Thank you for saying this. Surely, the management is a total f up at this moment, but yesterday it was for everyone to see that the team did better when playing with courage and press. Allegri got us playing like little children in our own f’ing stadium. It’s so sad. I’d rather play opportunistic football and be fifth then to be the weekly CL laughing stock

      1. So explain Fonseca and Concecaio? Didnt that lead us to 8th place? I’m not defending Allegri but I think Milan tried doing this last season and see how ot crumbled

        1. This team is significantly better than last year and plays only once a week. We lost Reijnders (Theo was a liability), Musah, Bondo but we got Modric, Rabiot, Ricci and Jashari. The midfield is drastically improved. De Winter / Thiaw is probably a drop, but not major. Nkunku is way better than Okafor. Fonseca would have had a different history at Milan with this team.

        2. You haven’t watched Milan play this season? You think it’s Allegri who raised the level? Nope. It was Modric, Bartesaghi & Rabiot. Even though Bart hasn’t been perfect, he’s not as dangerous to his own team as Theo was.

  3. Is this how Furlani avoids what will eventually come to him, or Allegri for that matter that he handpicked? Let me remind you Tare worked with Allegri however the pick was done by the allmighty Furlan. I like Paratici, but unless you bring Berlusconi back from the other world no one will be able to do anything. I would say fire Furlani, bring in Galliani, then let’s work from there, with or without champions league

  4. We’ve changed players, coaches, and sporting directors since the last Scudetto, with the results still disappointing. The only people who haven’t tried to change the CEO, president, and perhaps the owner. AC Milan deserves respectable and ambitious management.

  5. bunch of clowns… like maldini, tare, allegri, etc… were the problems🤣🤣🤣 it’s easy as, before redbird champions in Italy, semi finalist in the CL…. after Redbird banter era 2.0, so sell the club and dont worry about it

  6. huh? dis guy who was banished from juventus, turned tottenham to BAD, and now leads relegation battle fiorentina? yea that makes sense
