Galli pleads Milan fans to ‘have patience’ with Cardinale and Amorim: “I’m convinced”
By: Ben Dixon
Filippo Galli praised Gerry Cardinale a few weeks ago, and he’s repeated the praise for the AC Milan chairman today.
At present, Milan are in a good place. Although they’ve had a few disappointing results in midweek games, they’ve largely been solid when it’s mattered and picked up several really impressive results.
For Cardinale, it’s been a great start to life under Ruben Amorim – who he backed heavily in the summer – and the hope is that it will continue for the foreseeable future. In January, more investments are planned, and the aim is to continue the upward trajectory.
Galli’s plea
Speaking to Tuttosport, Galli pleaded for patience from the fans about Cardinale and Amorim, endorsing the pair heavily, as MilanNews relayed.
“I urge the fans to have patience and faith: I’m convinced that the Cardinale-Amorim project will be rewarding. This AC Milan will return to winning ways in the coming years. Scudetto? I see Inter and Roma a step above all the others for first place.
“Also keep an eye on Lazio, who are flying and only play one game a week, but AC Milan can also have their say. As a fan, I hope the Rossoneri can compete until the end.”
January recruitment?
“Are there talks about Inacio, Calvani, and Reggiani for the defence? They’re excellent players, but there are those who are better than me at being responsible for the club’s transfer decisions: I trust them. I’ll just say that, after Gabbia’s injury, a reinforcement is needed in the back.
“Gila at full-back? I’m really enjoying the Spaniard, even as a full-back. He’s playing his new role very well, also making a significant contribution in supporting the attack. I was sure he would establish himself quickly; already at Lazio, he proved himself to be one of the best defensive players in Serie A. Great acquisition.”
In recent weeks, after the legends dinner, Galli has been very vocal, especially about Cardinale. The constant praise for him is telling for a figure who, until this year, has been very polarising. Long may it continue.
