MN: Maldini and Massara to hold more power over Milan transfers but within set budgets | OneFootball

Paolo Maldini and Frederic Massara will have more power over transfers with their new contracts but are still confined by the board of directors’ budgets.

As has been reported by Milan News today, more and more details are emerging about the new contracts that Maldini and Massara signed at the final hour.

The hold-up in the negotiations appeared to be in relation to how much power the two men would hold when it came to transfer decisions, given they have a track record of making good signings that have led Milan to a Scudetto.

They have obtained freedom when it comes to acting in the transfer market and will not have to liaise so heavily with the owners of the club, something that has slowed down proceedings so far.

They are not totally free though, as they must act within the general guidelines and budgets that have been set out by the board of directors.
