Overview
- Gerry Cardinale used a U.S. podcast appearance to call owning AC Milan the most difficult project of his career.
- He said RedBird has kept Milan cash‑flow positive and reinvested proceeds, claiming the club spent more than any Serie A rival in the latest summer window.
- He outlined a new stadium plan with Tim Romani intended to transform Milan’s finances and serve as a model he plans to share with other Serie A teams.
- Cardinale argued the Premier League is the real economic competitor, describing it as a “black hole” and saying Serie A is underpaid internationally because broadcasters prioritize only top fixtures.
- His line that “nobody wants to see Cagliari‑Lecce” in the U.S. drew a public response from Cagliari president Tommaso Giulini on X, who defended the club and said Cardinale knows Sardinia only as a tourist.
