Paolo Maldini has stepped down as AC Milan’s technical director, the club announced on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
The alleged reason behind the decision is a breakdown with new owner Gerry Cardinale.<\/p>\n
\u201cAC Milan announces that Paolo Maldini concludes his role at the club, effective as of June 5, 2023,\u201d the club statement said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe thank him for his years of service in the role, contributing to the return to the Champions League and to winning the Scudetto in 2021-22. His day-to-day duties will be performed by a team working in close integration with the first team manager, ultimately reporting to the CEO.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maldini was a long-time captain as a player and favorites among fans, therefore it is no surprise that there has been a serious backlash from the Rossoneri supporters when the news broke out.<\/p>\n
Maldini joined as technical director in 2019 and was largely credited with building a young squad that eventually went on to clinch the Serie A title in the 2021-22 season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
