Tuttosport: UEFA to begin examining Milan and Toulouse amid European clash

UEFA will begin the process of examining Toulouse and AC Milan next week, a report claims, given that the two have the same owner RedBird Capital.

According to Tuttosport (via SempreMilan.it), UEFA intend to analyse the two clubs after Toulouse achieved participation a spot in the Europa League by winning the Coupe de France, while Milan gained access to the next edition Champions League.

It is a risky situation for UEFA considering that the two teams could meet in the Europa League if Milan were to finish in third place the group stage and thus drop into the competition, providing that Toulouse get through their group.

According to UEFA regulations it is forbidden for two clubs playing in European competitions to have the same ownership group. A decision should be made next week, at the end of the checks and evaluations that the federal body will carry out starting from Monday.
