No UCL Would Drastically Affect the Future Milan Plans Missing out on the UEFA Champions League wouldn’t only endanger the future of Massimiliano Allegri and part of the Milan management but also jeopardize all the transfer market plans already in motion and possibly lead to some hurtful departures, Corriere dello Sport informs. For instance, the Rossoneri haven’t reached a full agreement with Leon Goretzka yet, but they are leading the race. Luka Modric would be a lot more likely to call it quits rather than prolong his contract without a last hurrah on the biggest continental stage.

Milan already have some reservations about the Robert Lewandowski deal. It’d be out of the question without a top-four finish, which grants at least €90M in prize money. The Rossoneri made up for the losses with major sales last summer.

While Theo Hernandez was shipped off primarily because of his short-term contract, they would have likely held onto Tijjani Reijnders had they qualified for the most prestigious cup. In that sense, the main candidate for such treatment is Strahinja Pavlovic. A few Premier League clubs are tracking him.

A €50M transfer would go a long way in helping their finances, if need be. The defender was purchased from RB Salzburg for €18. 5M two years ago.

He’s been brilliant this campaign and also hit the net five times. Our Take on Milan They are in the worst shape among all the contenders, but they’ll face two unmotivated opponents. Needless to say, falling out would be an unmitigated disaster, as they have been in the driver’s seat for months.
