According to Il Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport, Milan‘s transfer budget won’t change despite the recent takeover from RedBird Capital Partners.
The Rossoneri need to strengthen their team to retain the Serie A title in 2022-23, but according to reports in Italy, Paolo Maldini will only have €60m available to make new signings in the summer transfer window. As per Il Giornale and Sky Sport Italia, the Rossoneri chief will be given €45-50m to strengthen the team, but the sum can be raised with sales.
RedBird Capital Partners completed the club’s takeover only a few weeks ago, but part of the deal has been financed by former Milan owners Elliott, so the transfer budget for next season won’t be raised.
According to the reports, the club’s strategy won’t change, meaning that the Rossoneri will mostly look for young, talented players who can increase their value under Stefano Pioli. Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara are expected to remain at the helm, extending their expiring contracts.
“I don’t worry much about the Maldini-Massara issue, I have no doubt that an agreement will be reached whereby this duo, which was so important, will continue with us in the coming years,” Milan President Paolo Scaroni said on Monday.

RW and AM then, if that’s all that can be afforded
This is nonsense speculation. No one knows what Milan‘s transfer budget is except those whose business it is to know, which is not sports gossip reporters at the usual papers. A couple weeks ago our transfer budget was 100 million, now it’s 60, next week it will be some new number.
Tuttosport is Juve-friendy, and i guess so is Il Corriere dello Sport, hence this seems nonsense BS
Unless this is media mischief, I don’t understand how the budget can be so low. I wasn’t expecting £200mil but I did think we would a little bit more to spend than the report figures.
Jesus Christ the last team in Premier League table have more budget I mean literally the teams that get relegated in the Premier League have more money to spend. What are a club like Milan supposed to do with 45m when at the very least three players are needed. Forget about new signings, Romagnoli and Kessié have left and there are already TWO HOLES in the squad. Replacing them with Botman and Sanches cost more than this joke of a budget.
Milan have 2 choices now in my opinion. Either sell Leao and use the money to cover the costs OR go all out for Dybala since he’s free and could be signed for like 6, 7m to plug the main hole in the squad. Then they can use the rest to sign two other midfielders and just forget about another defender.
But Jesus!
Since we don’t have enough to spend go get free transfer like dybala $ belotti
Really a crazy number for a club that just won the Serie A title. Hopefully it’s just media chatter as you guys mentioned. So much for aspiring for more.
That said we do have Adli & Pobega back in the MID that won’t come out of that shoestring budget. Botman 30m, Sanches 15-20m, winger/#10 25-35m and the budget is totally blown.
Thank goodness Origi is coming for free! Hopefully we really have around 70-80m to play with.
More than enough for the one true need in the squad, a right winger
So, nothing actually revealed at all, then?
Pure made up nonsense that this site and others keep peddling.
Here we’re RedBird buy Milan to destroy it unfortunately. How on earth can you win the scudetto and have a budget of just €50M ??? This is insane and this RedBird will never ever be backed by fans there starting is worse and worse for all Milan fans. Despite it’s Elliott who give the budget but the RedBird is also have the same useless and bad strategy like that of Elliott.
Go to hell Elliott #RedBirdOut
could even get Adrien Rabiot for 20million euros
Quick! Everyone panic!
Won’t someone think of the children!?!
Jeees… 🙄
Tuttosport has the same credibility as Moggi so I would take this with a pinch of salt. However, seeing how Milan‘s mercato is moving (or the lack of) I would say maybe this is accurate – who knows
@putuco the market doent open till July so Milan‘s market is going at same speed as everyone else’s. The numbers are pure speculation, cited from a ‘source’ in the club. Nobody would risk their job to give out numbers. Milan already have 2 new players Pobega and Adli, whilst Origi is likely. We don’t need loads of players, about 4 would do.
Why my post not going through again now… Hate commenting here because of this!
Milan once got banned from Europe for spending too much on new players. 50 Million is a joke, one good player can be bought for that. Or maybe invest in some Serie B talent I am sure there are more hungry fighting players than some of the expensive ones that don’t do much anyway.
Sounds like a club of Milan‘s stature with allegedly no money needs to hijack Inters Dybala deal… And maybe pick up Bellotti for free as well, to add to Origi.
Then spend what little money there is on a right winger and then get to work offloading the dead weight and reduce the salary load.
Just don’t sell Leao – He’s been frustrating as all hell for several seasons and he finally hit it.
Is this a joke?!
I don’t know who will sit these lazy journalists down and explain Milan account and plans to them. Go and cover life and style news, sport journalism is not for you guy.
The shld get Sanchez bootman Lang and ketelaere then belotti free and get maybe 2 experienced players for free player like Marcelo or Dybala
Then retain Pobega and Ramil
Belotti and Origi for free. Renew Romagnoli. Don’t waste 5m on Messias. Sell Rebic for 20m. Get CDK and Berardi or cheaper option Politano or Bernardeschi. If we have extra budget get Renato and a backup LB after we sell Ballo-Toure and Samu.
