Incoming owners RedBird Capital do not intend to renew the contract of CEO Ivan Gazidis who is now expected to leave the club later this year.
MilanNews writes how Gazidis’ contract as Milan CEO will expire in November and the decision of RedBird is that they will let him leave once his contract runs out, as they wish to implement their own man in that role (Gazidis was brought in by Elliott Management).
Several hypotheses are circulating regarding the name of his replacement, but regarding the future of Gazidis the South African executive has been contacted by Major League Soccer about a return to America.
If Gazidis were to accept the offer from MLS it would be a return to origins for him since in 1994 he joined the team of founders and managers of the MLS itself and from 2001 to 2008 he held the role of deputy commissioner.
