Milannan stands continue to protest management: We will not assemble in Milanello tomorrow

Milan's die-hard fans organization South Stand issued a statement saying that it would not participate in the first day of Milan's pre-season training activities to express its protests against management.

The statement read: "Tomorrow we will not gather at Milanello's first pre-season training. We thank all the friends who visited yesterday (at the end of the South Stands year-end party), whether they are here to say hello, have a beer, or to feel the 'Milanism' and to re-see the banners and flags that have been banned on the stadium... Go forward, Ultras, go forward, Red and Black Milanists!"

Milan fans' public dissatisfaction with the club management has lasted for months, especially against club owner Cardinale. Milan fans have repeatedly asked him to sell the club at the end of last season. Milan's poor results last season intensified the already tense atmosphere, and the climax came after losing to Bologna in the Italian Cup final. At that time, the red and black fans not only organized fierce protests in front of Milan's headquarters, but also collectively did not come to San Siro Stadium in the last round of the season.
