AC Milan's ownership group RedBird Capital appears to be settling into their role, with a renewed sense of optimism surrounding the club. The difficult end to the 2025-26 season and subsequent management overhaul have given way to enthusiasm, with Ruben Amorim at the helm and a flurry of summer transfer activity.

The Rossoneri are now a key player in the transfer market, with Amorim's desires driving the club's activity. This shift is thanks in part to the arrival of Massimo Calvelli as CEO, who has brought a significant increase in the club's transfer authority. Lawyer Felice Raimondo noted that the 'transitional phase' for RedBird and AC Milan is finally over.

Raimondo highlighted that the old bottlenecks have disappeared with Calvelli's appointment, allowing for more flexibility in signings. However, questions remain about the decision-makers' experience. The club's ability to adapt and navigate these changes will ultimately be judged on the field.

The atmosphere at Milanello seems to have changed, with Gerry Cardinale presenting Amorim alongside Calvelli. Despite lingering scrutiny of Cardinale, the overall mood is one of cautious optimism as the club embarks on a new era.
