CM: Scaroni and Furlani present obstacle for Galliani’s homecoming – the alternatives

AC Milan are in the final stages, it seems, of bringing Adriano Galliani home, back to the Rossoneri. However, some things must be worked out.

There is something about Milan looking to bring back Galliani which fills you with a bit more confidence. From a romantic perspective, it is bringing back one of the club’s greatest influences, someone who is recognised inside and out of the club.

However, it is also a strong point for everything else. The Rossoneri are bringing back someone who knows the DNA of the colours. Someone who knows the workings of Italian football in several senses. Ultimately, someone that the fanbase respects.

The issues

The management’s biggest weakness, really, is the lack of recognisable faces and a lack of ‘footballing’ knowledge. Zlatan Ibrahimovic was seen as the solution, and now those rewards are only just being seen.

So, a move for Galliani could massively strengthen the Rossoneri in several ways. However, there will be difficulties.

As Calciomercato.com writes, he cannot return as the president, a role held by Paolo Scaroni, nor can he return as the CEO, a title held by Giorgio Furlani. So, there are two options, it seems.

Either he would be the ‘Vice President’ or the ‘Head of Football’. Though considering his political power and knowledge, the latter would surely see him wasted slightly. We shall have to see.
