MN: Milan suspends “mole” who raised doubts about ownership during the investigation

In April, reports emerged that AC Milan’s shares were being invested, and this was quickly followed by reports of a “mole” within the club leaking the information. Today a report suggested that the mole had been “fired.”

The Milan prosecutor’s office had questions about the ownership status and the manner in which it was transferred from the Elliott Group to the new owner, RedBird. Several questions and statements followed in the days that followed, notably that “Elliott Group still had a significant influence on the day-to-day operations in Milan.”

The next step in the investigation was to determine the cause of the investigation and a report revealed that there was a mole at the club, who appeared to be Aldo Savi, a finance and administration director at the club.

Since then, Il Giornale has reported (via Radio Rossonera) that he was “fired on the spot” when it emerged that he had submitted a draft reserved for potential Arab investors, particularly given the timing of the investigation.

Ultimately, it’s another negative talking point for the season, in a season where the negatives were too common and the positives were few and hard to find.

However, MilanNews reports that in reality, bureaucratic processes are currently underway that follow the logic of labor law. This resulted in Savi being suspended from his role rather than immediately fired.
