Moretto: Milan return now ‘increasingly distant’ as Galliani considers FIFA role

Adriano Galliani has received an offer from FIFA, according to a report, and his potential return to AC Milan is ‘increasingly distant’ as a result. 

Since the middle of summer, Galliani has been heavily linked with a return to Milan. The former CEO spent 31 years at the club and is greatly appreciated by the fans, while his knowledge of Italian football cannot be underestimated either.

However, Galliani himself has always been very coy about a return, often referring to the sale of Monza (which has been keeping him busy). It seems there could be another reason for his coyness, though, as was first anticipated a few days back.

FIFA overtake Milan in Galliani pursuit

As stated by Moretto, having received further confirmations on the matter, Galliani is now increasingly distant from making a return to Milan. The 81-year-old has received an offer from FIFA and he’s now seriously considering accepting it.

It’s believed to be a very good offer for the former Milan CEO, most likely with a good salary and with an important title. It remains to be seen how the Rossoneri will approach the matter but the feeling is that they don’t view Galliani’s return as a huge priority.
