That's BS. 35 mil is peanuts compared to the value of Maldini's presence and contribution towards the club. If Mun U had bought all these players (at the time AC Milan did, IK Man U played for Zlatan), they would've spent 250 mil+ EASILY.
Hold up, Maldini has signed a whole team of amazing/world class players for only 140m which some of those players are worth now and Maldini was their best and most loyal player in the clubs history and he has made 1 single signing for 35m which hasn’t worked out yet but still could considering the player is still very young yet they sacked him. That is fucking ridiculous
They be like Chelsea...Kay we have a new coach, shit lets put Lampard there...Does not work with him either, shit lets put another coach...Shit, does not work again, lets try Lampard one more time, shit...You guessed it, it did not work out. Clubs put so much pressure and money into their projects and have unreasonably high expectations...It was and will be a continuous cicle for some unknown reason
World class? Get your milan-tinted glass off mate, only Rafael Leao i'd argue is anywhere near consistently performing week in week out from that list and has probably double/trebled his value.
Truly a disgraceful decision. Don’t see this working out in any way because the fans didn’t want him gone either. besides, who are they gonna sign in that position? Maldini knows the club better then anyone and you see he still loves the club. This is plain sad for Milan fans. one of your all time greats quit football and the goat of your club gets sacked by a money hungry owner. I feel bad
Only now,after a month, they starting to understand they are in a difficult situation about dealing with clubs...and they thinking about signing someone elso who can help forlani and moncada but then guess who it is? Otavio....a guy who years ago was a talent scout for the young AC Milan team in the Mirabelli period, so basically is kinda Moncada but with even less skill and even less knowledge about transfermarket,this owners to me look like stupid,cardinale got a degree in harvard but isn't smart enough for understand that if you sack someone you have to replace someone in a good way since this isn't Monza...he isn't smart enough for manage a club,his path is ok for Udinese not for Milan
Paolo's father is the one who lifted milan's first ulc and his son the last one milan needs a maldini this is a disgrâce my Heart is broken milan is a dinasty and the maldini's are our most loyal knites who served and protected the club for decades may god be with us now
yeah there was no reason to sack Maldini, he did a great job and was loved by everyone in the world..... Thierry Henry also saying Maldini did a good job, but the owner Cardinale didnt wanna help Milan supporting with transfers and Maldini probably disagreed and because of his big ego he sack him .... doesnt even care about the club or fans at all
He'll probably return as technical director eventually. When you've dedicated so much of your life to a club like him, you eventually return regardless of current circumstances
I am a Real Madrid supporter so I have no ties to this club. However it also infuriated me when I heard of his sacking. He’s a legend in the game regardless of team you support
Bro if my technical director brought all of that quality to the club for just 140 million in total I would double his wages. Spurs splashed 170 million on 5 players, including Richarlison who has 0 goals this season 😂 They finished 8th in the premier league, missing out on Europe for Brighton.
The owner think football is just a business, but football is a religion in Italy and the way the owner sack Maldini show that he disrespect the legend and the history of the club.
My respect for Cardinale 📉 Maldini is just irreplaceable. The greatest defender ever and one of the best footballers in general. He shouldn't have been disrespected like this, unacceptable.
Rangnick, a sporting director who helped the Red Bull empire succeed in European football, said, "If 50% of your signing work out, then you're doing a good job." Milan hasn't even bad, especially if you judge by the money spent.
So your telling me that because CDK was the one signing out of 11 players they signed recently that failed(even though it’s just his first season) Maldini gets the sack? Everything Maldini has done as technical director has been damn near perfect. And he’s put Milan back on track to be one of the best again despite this poor season. A few more signings especially in attack and maybe a change in coach can really help them but now that Maldinis gone, I can see a lot of their best players like Leao, Maignan, and Hernandez leaving as well. This owner has just screwed this project really badly
just funny how most of this club owners tend to place their misgivings on someone else's, looking for who to place the blame on......I hope he is ready to stomach the next few years of underachievement coming his way soon.....feel sorry for the Milan fans.funny enough the player in question (de katelare) might come good later in future.......does a certain Belgian (who left Chelsea because he was deemed not good enough) ring a bell.
It's not even about the fact that he's a club legend, he was actually good at his job. I don't know any team that doesn't miss on a few signings. Besides, the Belgian could still come good
What a great player! Amazing footballer! Absolute legend! You watch him play, and you want to pick up football and kick around. He remains one of top 5 of his generation for me
Not just Paulo..his father Cesare also played for AC Milan...sad to knew that he had been sacked as he's very loyal as a player then become Coach/Manager
It’s not even like they just burned €35Mto buy De Ketalaere, Atalanta activated his option to buy for €22M. How can you sack him over a €13M transfer loss???
If we forget he is the most legendary player from ac Milan and just focus on his tenure as technical director guy has done a great job, he has created a squad filled with quality without huge spending and has nothing to do with the poor management during last season .
Selling Tonali to a club like Newcastle is the worst decision they can make..Tonali is too good of a player to let go..He is underrated but wait till he plays in the PL..He would smoke the PL with his speed and defending..I am a AC Milan fan and I'm furious to lose a player like him..he didn't want to go..and If they sell leao or tomori then yeah the club is finished
2024. Humility is key strength of Maldini. Best cleanest footie player. Focus on ball not legs. Focus on game to win. Strong smart focused. Best footballer ever👍❤ God blessed 2B Too handsome to need b flashy on/off field..❤ D 👌 Best.
Maldini should have been able to say "I'm not fired, you're fired" and the guy should have been forced to leave. This is Maldini we're talking about here ffs.
maldini is a really young techical director and hes bound to make some mistakes here and there, but he showed he had the talent and the vision to rebuild milan and to be a great figure in his role
Man De Ketelaere is very good he just did not work out at Milan. He had trouble adjusting but after this great season with Atalanta he is going to be great
This is like the Lakers firing Magic Johnson. You just don't treat your iconic players with such disgrace. At least behind the scenes ask him to step down. Firing a legend will piss off your fans.
“Acthually” the Maldini legacy began in 1954 when Paolo’s father, Cesare Maldini, joined the club and then went on to captain Milan to their first European Cup against Benfica in 1963, 40 years before Paolo did the same against Juventus in 2003.
It wasn't only one bad transfer. Origi, Ballo toure, dest, renewed Pioli .. Negotiated all summer for CDK so the price went from 35M to...35M. Let's not forget losing the likes of Donnarumma, Kessie and Chalanoglu for free
Maldini the best defender ever would be worth now over 1B on the market for sure ac milan club owners now have no clue who maldini was and what he has done for the club shame on them he is milan best player in history
This is the consecuence of people alienated from football getting involved in important teams, as they know nothing about the team’s history or it’s fans. No matter what he did outside football, the way Berlusconi managed AC Milan is to learn from, even when the teams decline began the team kept signing the right players, although most of them underdelivered
Tbh, sometimes legacy as a player can't be compare to work as a techincal director he was then, he could done a horrible decision after winning the league, but still a legend as a player
Some people buy soccer club and don't have passion for the club. There passion is money not the history of the club. Then CEO out Maldini under the bus. The same this happen @ Tottenham Hotspur the coach Conti say the same thing CEO blame the coach and Conti get sack because he say Tottenham never will anything since 20 year ago 💯👍😎
Cardinale is American..I am American so I can say this. What do you all expect from an American owner? 💰 being the forefront and change happening season after season. Milan is done for now until he’s either out or maldini or another club legend take over again
And the best thing is, the 35 mil "flop" just didn't adapt in 1 season and on loan to atalanta (now permanent) he played really well, scored important goals, and won a europa league
