No, it just says this mfer is on cardio overload running from morning to evening. This kind of white boy face ranges between 40-80 white boys can run across the country.

Dangerous cunts. They will remove their shirt and put a black band around the chest and run whole summer to get that skin cancer.
How have you just described @Milan10

It’s bizarre and completely unnecessary. That treatment should be meted out to Origi (it was) and Bennacer (it should be). Adli went to Fiorentina, did decently, comes back to be banished to Futuro. Dick move.

I guess it’s not bizarre because there have been some decisions by management that defy logic. But even if you want to sell him, playing him with kids is supposed to help the price?
Bizarre and defying logic? Quite a stretch

Management have no need of him, he outright refused to Russia without even entertaining the offer, and management returned the favor in kind.

He will have no value in the senior team, and instead of being an unused asset, management relegated him to helping futuro who need all the help they can since, you know, relegation a few weeks ago.

As he was bought for 10m originally, fiorentina hadn't unlocked his 12m option, and he refused his only suitor this summer, I don't think managemt is quite worried about his loss of value.

As for Origi and bennacer, they are not even symbolically in futuro, they're not on any Milan parameter beyond the payroll. That's because they shat on the club.

Adli is just useless.

I'm currently in Catalonia. After Barcelona, these are by far the most common jerseys:

1. Milan - 80% with the number 10 / Rafa Leao
2. Inter Miami
3. PSV Eindhoven
4. Betis
5. PSG/Argentina/various Spanish teams
I came back from Greece a few days ago from vacation, and I saw a lot of Milan jerseys there.

Why wouldn’t any professional footballer reject Russia? Their clubs are in exile because of the conflict for one.

Even though I am no huge fan of Adli and I think on the balance of it, he should be sold, there are ways to go about it. There are other “useless” players in this squad currently. They abound!

It’s a weird situation in my view but to each their own.

question is why is it so hard to look into the truth? For last 6 months i only have anxiety when i think about Ac Milan. It is really hard to admit that current managment is shit and incapable. My standards are so low now that i would feel good with just bringing Jashari and Doue.

I like Adli, I think he has use and wouldn't mind him as a backup but when every coach has declined to include you, you need to take the hint.

Life isn't some manga / anime where he will finally stumble on the secret sauce and become Zidane tomorrow and destroy the league.

He could have taken the offer to go to Qatar? ( or was it Saudi Arabia) or at the very least got his agent to shop him around to find some solution in France or Turkey.

Yes, agree on Qatar and other options. If those options are indeed real. I think we can handle it a bit better that’s all.

But I am more vexed by Musah currently. Fml.

If Pep stumbled on 14 cups in four years squad then Adli stumbling on a 20 goal contributions a season is nothing.

Maybe it's just that the staff doesn't want to bloat up the training sessions with players, they won't evaluate anyway. We may not like Musah but there's still a chance that the right offer doesn't come and then he will play this season. Adli is still granted a proper training facility and this may even accelerate his search for a new club.

Damn you Pioli and Krunic otherwise we could have sold Adli to Real madrid for 120 milion.

If Adli wakes up with Messi's left and Iniesta's shimmy then show up to Milanello tomorrow and demolish Modric and Ricci.

Our luck - last season at Fiorentina was his Pep stumble :cry:

There are players who upper management decide on, regardless of what the manager (and it seems SD, as well) think.

Monica Colombo of CDS said that Allegri wanted to rehabilitate Theo, "but when he arrived at Milan, certain decisions had already been made." She added that the sale of Reijnders was done before Allegri was consulted, as was the decision to sell Theo.

Bianchin of GDS seems to have the inside scoop on the situation with Adli, noting that he "has never made controversy and it is difficult to think that it will begin this time" despite this extreme choice to deal with Adli this way.

What is infuriating about talking about Adli, though, is this notion that he was rejected by several coaches. Pioli was the one who rejected him, to his own detriment, before conceding that he was wrong, publicly, when he relied on Adli.

It seems that Adli, like Saelemaekers, were players' whose fates were decided regardless of what the coach wanted--Fonseca notably underlined that he wanted to rely on Alexis before he was loaned out. It was reported in multiple places that Adli was on the way out before Fonseca's appointment, if I remember correctly. However, it's not like I'm going to hold Fonseca's opinion in high regard--the issue is that our management make choices regardless. It's why we pushed out CDK after his nightmare first season, but continue to rely on Chuk, despite being a horrific signing, himself.

Bianchin notes that Fiorentina did not reject him, writing: "he [Adli] let Fiorentina know that he did not want to continue in purple – he aimed to play a place for Milan." Again, Adli's problems in the second half of the season were due to injury, he did not lose his place. Palladino did so poorly that he got fired, mind you. Adli returned to Milan because, as Bianchin writes that Adli "would like to try to convince Allegri to give him a place in squad," but notes that at the moment, it isn't possible because the club (i.e. management) want to sell him.

If the report that Spartak offered 18m is true--interest Bianchin confirms in his report [though not the figure]--it shows that Adli does have a significant market value, making the choice to relegate him to Futuro an odd choice, as again, Adli has not made any trouble, there are no reports of him doing that. Early reports pointed to Napoli interest, while he has also been linked to many clubs in the past, Sevilla, Lille, Eintract Frankfurt, and it seems the most concrete link was Ajax. He rejected them to play for Milan, so it's not like he doesn't have a market.

Bianchin writes: "it is likely that he [Adli] will end up making a decision only in August, when market opportunities multiply." Adli isn't rejecting moves out-of-spite, but because he doesn't want to go to Moscow or the Gulf. Not exactly a crime, especially for someone who has been a consumate professional.

It seems like they are determined to push Adli out, with Adli's preference to go to a European team, rather than Saudi, Qatari, or Russian offers that have come, so far--which I don't think is a partiuclarly good reason to send him to Serie D.

My read on this is confusion, why not give him the chance to prove himself to Allegri? It's clear that Allegri is not the one pushing him out, based on the available reporting, rather, it is a choice made by management. Are they upset that he rejected Fiorentina and want to punish him? Are they upset he won't take the Spartak deal, which would benefit them greatly?

The major concern for me, is not Adli, honestly, it isn't. It is the fact that we still have a disconnect between management, our sporting director, and even our manager. It is not Tare or Allegri who are making this decision, but Furlani and Moncada, who have shown that they are genuinely incompetent. The reports of their decision making, independent of other executives, still is rearing its head, confirmed by multiple outlets, over several different players plus illustrated in several incidents, many public.

Allegri and Tare don't see Adli worth a fight, hell, Allegri wanted to keep Theo it seems he didn't put that much of a fight for him, it seems Mike is the one that Allegri gets to keep. I think it becomes clear why Berta (and other potential SDs) didn't want this job--they wouldn't be given the necessary control to fix things. It also makes sense why they would go for Allegri over Conte, Allegri doesn't have the same combative history that Conte or Sarri do.

For those who dismiss my concerns saying that I am biased over Adli, the question then must be asked: why is Devis Vasquez getting the same treatment after finally having a good season and being at his most marketable? What is the logic there?

Last contract year . Six months to free negotiations . Should they extend it now , to check if Allegri like him ?

So Tare and Allegri are not good already . It does not take much time .
