Even if they aren't competing for trophies, Milan should be able to improve their squad to compete for the top spot in Serie A. Milan struggled quite a bit last season, finishing in eighth place. This wasn't an expected result, as they were previously a top place contender. They made short term efforts to immediately revamp the team's performance for maximum results. But we'll see how they perform in the new season.
Yes, in the previous season Milan's performance was very bad, and I personally also did not think that Milan would have such a performance in the previous season. But basically that's the reality that exists and Milan must accept its reality. But I also hope that Milan will rise again next season. Because it will certainly be very less exciting if next season Milan cannot compete again in the top 4 positions in Serie A. But the problem is that currently Milan don't seem to be moving too aggressively in the transfer market. So if it continues like this, I think Milan will find it difficult to compete optimally in Serie A. So they should start moving aggressively in the transfer window this time.
Because, in my personal opinion, Milan currently has a large enough fund to be able to get some good players. Because as far as I know, until now Milan have sold several players at quite expensive prices. For example, Tijjani Reijnders, Theo Hernandez, and also Pierre Kallulu. So with that, Milan should be able to bring in new, better players. Because if Milan don't bring in great players this time, I think Milan will be much worse in performance next season. Because, some of the key players have been sold. So Milan should realize this and start to take serious action on this matter.
