Cardinale has received a lot of criticism from Milan fans in recent months, not just because of the struggles of the Rossoneri’s project but also his absence. In fact, he hasn’t been in Milano since September of last year, which says a lot.
Earlier today, he was part of a panel at the 19th edition of the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference, more specifically the panel ‘Building Sports Empires with an Entrepreneurial Edge’. However, despite discussing sports investments in Europe, he didn’t even mention Milan once.
Furthermore, he wasn’t asked about the Rossoneri by the presenter, which suggests it was an active choice not to mention the club. Given the current situation it’s perhaps understandable, but it could also be seen as dodging the responsibilities.
The fact that Cardinale hasn’t even sent a message to the fans since the Supercoppa Italiana win is a bit worrying, as the fans also need to be addressed in tough times.
