Journalist claims Milan employees are shocked by ‘brutal’ Maldini and Massara news

There is shock resonating in the floors of Casa Milan amid the managerial revolution that is currently taking place, a journalis thas claimed.

MilanNews are among the reliable sources reporting that Gerry Cardinale has decided to fire Paolo Maldini and Ricky Massara from their position as technical and sporting director respectively.

There is still no official announcement, but the decision has now been made after Cardinale met Maldini in a hotel in the centre of Milan and communicated that there is no longer a place for him among the management group.

According to Eurosport journalist Guillaeme Maillard-Pacini, nobody at Milan saw the sudden dismissals of Maldini and Massara coming, which came 24 hours after Zlatan Ibrahimovic not only left the club but retired from football altogether.

An employee summarised the current feeling at the club: “We are all in shock, both in substance and form. The players are too, they lost two figures like Zlatan and Paolo in 24 hours. It’s as hard as it is brutal.”
