The AC Milan saga continues, and it's a tale of unfulfilled promises and a season looming on the horizon. Andrea Longoni, a seasoned observer of the Rossoneri, has penned a scathing critique of the club's recent performance, particularly the lack of new signings and the delay in delivering on promises made to Ruben Amorim.
Longoni's latest editorial, published on MilanNews, highlights a pattern of disappointment that has become all too familiar for Milan fans. The appointment of Amorim as head coach in June was met with high expectations, especially after the club's underwhelming finish to the previous season. The initial signs were promising, with the signings of Goncalo Ramos and Mario Gila, but the silence that followed raised eyebrows.
The Italian journalist emphasizes the contrast between the initial fireworks and the current lack of action. Gerry Cardinale, the club's president, had promised to provide Amorim with the necessary players promptly. However, as the season approaches, the squad remains largely unchanged, and the transfer market has been notably quiet.
Longoni's frustration is palpable, especially given the club's recent history. Milan finished in eighth and fifth place in the previous two seasons, indicating a need for significant improvement. The journalist argues that the failure to deliver on the promise of a fully assembled squad to Amorim is a significant setback.
The question now is whether Cardinale can deliver on his promises in the remaining weeks of the transfer window. Longoni's editorial serves as a stark reminder that the club's reputation for underperformance is not a mere coincidence. It remains to be seen if the Rossoneri can turn things around and provide their fans with the excitement they crave.
