AC Milan targeting Europa League


Playing in the Europa League next season is AC Milan's primary aim following their elimination from the Champions League, according to general manager Adriano Galliani.

The Rossoneri went down 5-1 on aggregate to Atletico Madrid after a 4-1 defeat at the Vicente Calderon on Tuesday, seeing their European campaign end prematurely.

Inter Milan faded towards the end of last season and missed out on the Europa League, without showing too many regrets. However, Milan are intent on closing a nine-point gap on their city rivals and ensuring they will still represent Italy in Europe next season.

"It's not at all true that Milan don't want to play in the Europa League," Galliani told Milan Channel. "Qualifying for it will be our club's objective between now and the end of the season.

"We need to beat Parma on Sunday to move to within five points of the Gialloblu. Milan have always been in Europe in recent years and so we want to remain in Europe."

Sixth place will almost certainly be enough for a berth in the Europa League next season, unless one of third-placed Napoli or fourth-placed Fiorentina -- the Coppa Italia finalists -- drop to seventh in the table.

Eight points separate Milan from Parma in sixth, but with 20 points to make up on Napoli in the 11 remaining league games, a place in the Champions League next season seems beyond them.

Milan last failed to qualify for the Champions League in 2008. They were eliminated from the 2008-09 UEFA Cup by Werder Bremen in the last 32 and have not gone beyond the quarterfinal stage of the Champions League since winning the trophy in 2007.

The last time the Rossoneri failed to qualify for any European club competition was in 1998, when they finished tenth in an 18-team Serie A, also missing out on a place in the Intertoto Cup.

Maldini: Milan has been destroyed

Paolo Maldini has expressed anger and disappointment at seeing his beloved Milan "destroyed".

The Rossoneri are enduring a difficult campaign and have seen a change in Coach fail to arrest the decline in results.

Former full-back Maldini, who in 24 seasons with the club won a total of 26 major honours, has reflected on his dismay in seeing the club struggle.

The weekend defeat at home to Parma saw fans protest and had the retired full-back watching on.

“Yes I watched the game, as well as the match with Atletico and nearly all of those of the past two years,” began Maldini to the Gazzetta dello Sport today.

“Inside me there is a mixture of anger and disappointment, not so much for the results, because the club has previously been 10th or 11th, but because the impression is that they have thrown away what was built with hard work over the previous 10 years.

“For me this is very bad. Milan have had the good fortune of having many winning cycles with similar synergies of men, I know how much work there was behind so many triumphs, what it took to build such a beautiful story. To see it all destroyed drives me crazy.”

The 45-year-old was asked how he believes the club has been destroyed.

“It stems from the exit of many players with a winning mentality. I believe that the successes first depend on the men.

“Milan have had so many pass through over the last 25 years, but how many of those work at the club? None. Milan’s history is Filippo Galli, head of the youth sector.

“And then there is Tassotti, who I believe could leave at the end of the season. If so it would be another crazy move. We will lose another piece of history. I hope that it is not true.

“At Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, the past greats work at the club. This is the first big problem. Juve has understood and has restructured using a solid group of Italians who know how to achieve success.


“Mine is not a personal discourse. Some might think that I spit in the plate where I ate, but it is not so. I suffer in seeing Milan under these conditions. I have two children who play in the youth sector, one is now on loan at Brescia. I feel a part of the club.”
Maldini was asked of the fans’ protests against action in the transfer market.

“The club must make clear that it has other goals - it cannot compete with Juve and it is not among the top 10 in Europe.

“There is no project, they look at today and not tomorrow. You have to buy players functional to the game, do not sign only on a free. You may get it right sometimes, but not always. And then if you hand out a colossal contract, it serves no purpose. But the problem is structural.

“Should Galliani stay or go? It is not for me to say. I think that when you feel all powerful, it is not clear that the results were obtained thanks to others. To win, we want ideas, design, passion. At Milan there remains only passion. It is not enough.

“Can Barbara Berlusconi lead Milan? I do not know. It depends on those around her. I do not think she is an expert on football and footballers.”

Maldini has been linked with a return to the Giuseppe Meazza in a technical position, and was quizzed on that.

“I had two interviews with Barbara, after the division of responsibilities I have been designated as the successor to Galliani in the technical area, but I have not heard from anyone.

“She wanted me to convey everything we have talked about so far, I was ready for a role in the sporting area, but there has been no follow up.”

Maldini was asked if Coach Clarence Seedorf, with his Milan past, was in the right place to help the club.

“It is logical that he does not have experience, he has great courage and personality, but even Guardiola could not do anything. Do not blame Clarence. There is a lack of clarity in objectives.

“Maybe at the end of the season there could be a more conservative Coach, then a good start to next year. So there is a risk he will get burned.

“Allegri’s dismissal? The situation in the table was bad, but I never believed another Coach could do better or make a change during the season.

“Inzaghi for the future? He has spent two years with the youth academy and this counts. But a rookie Coach must be supported by a very strong structure and not get burned. Sacchi and Capello at the start could rely on great champions.”

Milan itabaki kuwa Milan

Montella to Milan?

Sensational reports in the Italian Press this afternoon claim that Vincenzo Montella could be targeted by Milan in the summer.
Sport Mediaset suggest that the Rossoneri will relieve Clarence Seedorf of his coaching duties at the end of the season, regardless of where they finish in the table.
And with the Dutchman out of the picture, Barbara Berlsuconi will go to the Fiorentina boss and try to tempt him to San Siro.
The former Roma striker may prove difficult to get however, having signed a contract to keep him in Tuscany until 2017.
It is also unclear whether Montella would want to swap Champions League-chasing Fiorentina for middle of the table Milan.

Mediaset though, insist that the Diavolo are looking at the Viola tactician as a potential successor to Seedorf.
And should they get their man, Luciano Spalletti is expected to come in at Artemio Franchi, having been sacked by Zenit St Petersburg in March.
