"None will be unsellable - this must be clearly emphasised - but there will be a core group that Massimiliano Allegri would like to build around. Eight players, to be precise."
"Davide Bartesaghi's recent slump - one largely shared by his team-mates - hasn't affected the coach and management's assessment of him. The club also sees the left-back as a jewel in the crown, representing the perfect synergy between Milan Futuro and the first team."
"Matteo Gabbia is a captain without the armband, one of the leaders of the dressing room despite not being a veteran by age. He is a veteran in Rossoneri terms, a club he attended as a child and whose DNA is Milanismo."
"Mike Maignan is the official captain, wearing the armband since the start of the season. In terms of performances, Mike has earned the Rossoneri a lot more points than he has lost them, and as one of the best in his position, he will be built around."
AC Milan is strategically planning for the 2026-27 season with eight cornerstone players forming the foundation of their project under Massimiliano Allegri. These players include left-back Davide Bartesaghi, captain Matteo Gabbia, goalkeeper Mike Maignan, and defender Strahinja Pavlovic. While none are technically unsellable, this core group represents the club's long-term vision. The squad requires significant restructuring with both incoming and outgoing transfers to improve quality and quantity. If Milan fails to secure Champions League qualification, the upheaval will be more profound, but roster changes are inevitable regardless of their final league position.
