Milan's Failure Exceeded 70 Million Euros, Transfers Did Not Provide the Expected Contribution

While Milan club completed its fourth year under RedBird management, it showed a successful image in off-field matters, but football performance remained below expectations. In the last four seasons, Milan ranked fourth, second, eighth, and fifth in Serie A, winning only the Italian Super Cup in 2025. However, failing to qualify for the Champions League for the second consecutive time negatively affected the club's financial structure. The management undertook a radical restructuring in the sporting field and dismissed the technical staff and executives. This situation led to an additional cost of approximately 22 million euros in the 2025-26 financial year. The impact of not qualifying for the Champions League on club revenues is estimated between 60 and 90 million euros. Next season, Milan, which will compete in the Europa League, is expected to face a loss of about 50 million euros. The club's transfer expenditures are also notable. Milan spent a total of 515 million euros in the last four seasons, with a net expenditure of approximately 250 million euros. Despite these high expenses, the expected sporting success and revenue increase could not be achieved. This situation complicates the club's long-term sustainable growth goals.
