AC Milan Executives Sidestep Fan Protests at Anniversary Event
The tension between AC Milan fans and the club’s management continued to escalate following the team’s goalless draw against Genoa at San Siro. As the club prepared to celebrate its 125th anniversary with a private event, supporters gathered outside the venue to express their discontent.
Reports indicate that Milan’s executives chose to avoid a direct confrontation with the protesters. In a move suggested for public safety reasons, the club’s leadership opted to enter the celebration through a secondary entrance rather than the main one where fans had assembled.
Among those who discreetly accessed the venue were CEO Giorgio Furlani, Technical Director Geoffrey Moncada, and RedBird’s Senior Advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Club President Paolo Scaroni also reportedly used an alternative entrance to join the festivities.
This strategic entry highlights the ongoing challenges faced by AC Milan’s management in addressing fan concerns while navigating the club’s future direction. The incident underscores the delicate balance between tradition, fan expectations, and the realities of modern football management.
