AC Milan's search for a new Director of Football has hit a snag with Markus Krösche's appointment seeming unlikely. The Rossoneri may have to revisit their initial plan and consider Devin Özek for the role. Özek had emerged as a late candidate but fell into the background when Krösche seemed like a done deal. Milan's management is under criticism for the delay in appointing a new Director of Football.

The club cannot afford to wait much longer, especially after appointing a new head coach. A Director of Football is crucial in shaping the team's future, and Milan needs to make a swift decision. Özek's profile might appeal to the club, having risen through the ranks at Bayer Leverkusen and later becoming a key figure at Fenerbahce. His experience could be valuable in identifying and nurturing young talent.

Özek's move to Fenerbahce did not yield the desired results, but his background in scouting and talent development could be an asset for Milan. The club might find it easier to negotiate with Özek, as there would be no complex discussions involved, unlike with Krösche. Milan's fans are eager to see a new Director of Football appointed and start building a competitive team.

The coming days will be crucial in determining Milan's Director of Football. The club must make a decision that will help shape the team's future and bring success to the Rossoneri.
