Milan recently confirmed a €24m loss for the 2025-26 financial year after finishing the previous three seasons with a profit.

According to Gazzetta, however, Cardinale’s contribution was not driven by the need to restore shareholders’ equity, but by the need to ‘meet cash requirements and support future investments,’ including new signings.

Cardinale is expected to return to Italy this weekend to attend Sunday’s Serie A clash against Sassuolo at the Mapei Stadium in Reggio Emilia.
