In the green fields of Italy, Juventus' reinforcement plan has never been low-key, but recently their move seems somewhat cautious. Their target is AC Milan's central defender - Tomori, whose name has been frequently mentioned recently. However, behind this news, it is not just a simple discussion about Tomori's transfer, but a deeper background: Milan's transfer strategy has undergone a complete change, and the most direct impact is Maldini's departure. Honestly, who would have thought that in Milan's glorious years, Maldini's signing perspective and vision would be changed by a cold notice from Redbird Group. The name Maldini is probably a legendary figure in the hearts of many Milan fans. He is not only a symbolic player of Milan but also the one who has held up Milan's transfer banner. But since Redbird Group acquired AC Milan, Maldini's player signing strategy has gradually become inappropriate in the eyes of the management. Under Maldini's leadership, Milan did introduce some very promising players like Leao and Theo, but more players, especially those future stars signed under Maldini, found it difficult to find a stable position in the team. On the one hand, Redbird Group has its own economic considerations, and on the other hand, Maldini's recruitment strategy seems not to have reached their expectations. Those players who were once highly anticipated did not perform as expected in Milan. Some were quickly loaned out, others became substitute roles, and Tomori, who should have been the backbone of the team, also seemed to gradually become a member of the bench. Tomori's situation is particularly intriguing. Since joining Milan from Chelsea for 35 million euros in the winter of 2021, everyone thought this deal was a brilliant move, after all, Tomori's performance at that time was quite eye-catching. Reality, however, is somewhat disappointing. Although Tomori's performance on the field is still stable, his role in Milan's tactical system is not as important as imagined. Gradually, the status of this English central defender in Milan has become increasingly marginalized, and even the starting position has become a luxury. At this moment, Juventus appeared in front of Tomori like a timely rain. Juventus' defense has had some hidden dangers in the past few seasons, and they urgently need to strengthen the central defender position. Therefore, under this background, Juventus targeted Tomori and hoped to introduce this English central defender through a loan. Honestly, this transfer plan looks quite interesting. If Juventus can bring Tomori to the team, it can not only enhance the depth of the defense but also help Tomori get rid of the fate of being a substitute in Milan, opening a new chapter in his own career. However, there is a deeper story behind this, which is Maldini's recruitment record, well, slightly embarrassing. Players like Theo and Leao performed well, but the transfer fees and value changes of others like Saelemaekers and Kalulu seem somewhat incompatible with the soil. For example, Saelemaekers, who was introduced from Lille for 11 million euros, is now loaned to Rome, with no significant increase in value. And Tomori, despite the initial 35 million euros looking like a good investment, his value has plummeted and is now down to 22 million euros. This makes people can't help but sigh, how did Maldini's recruitment vision become a chicken rib in the eyes of Redbird? More interestingly, all this seems to be telling us that Redbird Group does not fully trust Maldini's recruitment strategy, and their attitude is becoming increasingly indifferent. Many players signed by Maldini are either loaned out or gradually become substitutes. This situation indeed makes many Milan fans puzzled. Everyone knows that Milan has indeed achieved some results in the past few years, but whether these achievements can be sustained is still a big question mark. For Redbird Group, they may pay more attention to the return on investment rather than the emotional attachment behind each transfer. Will Tomori become Juventus' new favorite? This loan deal not only gives Juventus another choice in defense but may also be an opportunity for Tomori's career rebirth. Milan's indifference to him may just be Juventus' opportunity. If Juventus can introduce Tomori, it may give this young central defender a new stage and provide stronger depth for the team's defense. No matter what the future holds for Tomori, Milan's series of changes reflect deeper adjustments in club management style and strategy. Maldini's departure means that Milan's golden age is gradually fading, and Redbird Group's business philosophy will become the dominant force in the future. As for these relics of the Maldini era, how they will be managed, I'm afraid we can only leave it to time to witness. Some netizens discussed this topic, saying: It's really hard to understand. Milan's glory for so many years has actually been changed by such an external force. Maldini has already left. How should the players' future go? It's really a mess. Another netizen thinks: In fact, if Milan wants to go further, it still depends on the new management. Although some players have left, maybe this is their opportunity to upgrade and replace. Don't always talk about the past glory. Some fans are more radical, thinking: If Tomori goes to Juventus, it's really a big blow! Milan let go of such a potential stock so easily, it's too much of a loss. Juventus' determination to introduce Tomori has also aroused various speculations among fans. Does this mean that Juventus pays more attention to the tactical needs of the immediate defense reinforcement, or is it looking for a possible long-term investment? Some netizens jokingly said: Although Tomori is Milan's abandoned child, his performance in Juventus may not be inferior. After all, his days in Milan were not bad. Behind this sentence, it actually reveals Juventus fans' optimistic expectation of Tomori's joining, believing that he has the chance to shine in the new environment. No matter what, the story between Milan and Juventus has gradually transcended the simple transfer of players. It reflects problems in multiple aspects such as club management, strategic decision-making, and player development. Perhaps we can sigh that the former red and black empire is gradually falling into a bigger internal and external dilemma, while Juventus, as a competitor, is quietly catching up.
