Milan have sacked coach Massimiliano Allegri and directors Giorgio Furlani, Igli Tare and Geoffrey Moncada, a move that could cost the Rossoneri up to €22m, according to Gazzetta.
Milan will literally start from scratch in the summer as the Serie A giants have sacked their coach and their most prominent directors following a fifth-place finish in 2025-26, which has left the team out of next season’s Champions League.

Potential financial consequences for Milan after major sackings
La Gazzetta dello Sport explains in detail how this move will affect the club financially, reporting that it might cost up to €22m.
‘From an accounting perspective, it will be recorded as non-recurring charges in the financial statement for the year ending June 30, 2026,’ explained the Pink Paper.
The largest payouts concern the CEO, Furlani, and coach Allegri.
Furlani’s contract was due to expire in 2028. His €3m-a-year salary plus bonuses means the total tally is around €10m gross.
Allegri remains under contract until June 2027 with a salary of €5m, circa €9m gross.
The remaining amount in Tare’s contract is valued at €3m gross as the ex-sporting director was under contract until 2028 with €800,000 wages.
According to the report, Moncada had recently agreed to sign a new contract with Milan, but had not yet signed it, so he has just one month left in his deal with the Rossoneri.
Obviously, the sackings’ costs that Milan will set aside in the current financial year could be reduced in the future if Tare, Allegri and Furlani reach agreements with other clubs or companies.
Allegri, for example, is said to be among the leading candidates for Napoli to replace Antonio Conte.
