MN: Moncada, Almstadt, Zelus and Beane – the new direction of Milan’s recruitment

There are new names and motives involved in AC Milan’s summer transfer strategy following the departures of Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara, a report explains. 

As reported by Milan News, there are four names that are going to be central to Milan’s transfer strategy going forward, and they will need to get to work fast.

CEO Giorgio Furlani is going to have the final say on what happens over the next few months and beyond, but chief scout Geoffrey Moncada will be identifying players for Milan to sign, whilst the data analysis will be done by Hendrik Almstadt.

It was Moncada who recently met the agent of Villarreal winger Samuel Chukwueze.

With data set to play even more of a role in Milan’s transfer strategy now, there will be a lot of focus on the work of Luke Bornn’s Zelus Analytics, as well as the consultancy work of Billy Beane on the ‘moneyball’ approach that is going to be implemented.
