AC Milan does not intend to endorse or confirm the accuracy of the news in the daily press. Oliver Glasner has put Milan at the top of his preferences and is waiting for a new call, possibly already today. The Austrian coach, fresh from winning the Conference League with Crystal Palace, is convinced that he can bring a winning mentality and intense football to the rossonero. His path intersects with that of Ralf Rangnick as DT and could bring in the defender David Alaba, released after his experience at Real Madrid. Oliver Glasner is in pole position for the Milan bench. The Austrian, expert and able to value his players, is described as a guarantee for the reconstruction and has said he is available even without a defined management structure. Among the evaluations in progress for the role of DS, in addition to Ramón Planes, the name of Devin Özek, a director with experience at Bayer Leverkusen and Fenerbahçe, has also entered. A potentially decisive week is underway for the definition of the new Milan setup. Gerry Cardinale, together with Zlatan Ibrahimović and Diego Calvelli - who is currently managing the operational delegations - is about to get the first responses to the profiles contacted. Oliver Glasner remains in pole position for the bench, while for the DT role, work is underway on the dossier that sees Ralf Rangnick in the first place. Among the roles to be defined are also those of AD and DS. Luka Modrić has scored the 1-0 goal in the friendly match won by Croatia against Slovenia 2-1, with a shot from the edge of the area. The midfielder, who came on the field with a protective mask after a fracture to his left cheekbone, has shown he is already in World Cup form. A reassuring sign ahead of the start of the World Cup, where he will lead Croatia in Group L as captain and technical leader. The Financial Times dedicates an in-depth analysis to the growing weight of American investors in European football. Today, Americans control 117 European clubs, including Arsenal, Inter, Atlético Madrid and AC Milan. Gerry Cardinale, founder of RedBird Capital and owner of AC Milan, highlights the still vast growth opportunities in European football: "Investors look at European football and say: this is a great opportunity to enter the global entertainment industry. The economic opportunity is enormous". The 2026 World Cup is expected to be a catalyst for new interest even across the ocean. Alessandro Nesta, interviewed in New York during the Legends of Azzurri event, proposes a constructive reading of the Milan moment. "It's not difficult to restructure a club if you put the right people in the right roles", his premise. The starting point, according to Nesta, is the appointment of a capable DS, who can then choose the coach. "The Milan restructured in the right way can arrive second immediately", the forecast for the next Serie A. Ariedo Braida, at the Parma Sports Festival, shared his bond with the Club: "I am in love with Milan and hope the club can return to its former glory".
