May be this belongs here

Nicola Cortese has resigned as Southampton executive chairman and is heavily linked with a move to Milan.

The news of Cortese’s interest in a job within Milan’s new club structure emerged over the last few days and has been gaining traction.

I have never heard about this guy. Anyone know anything about him?

For what I know he is a tough businessman, where ever he ends up he will be a strict business type. Those who like him give him credit for rescuing Southampton financially mostly

Cortese by the looks of it has done an amazing job at southampton. 2 promotions and doing well in PL. And with a brilliant youth setup. just looking at the young players they have brought through is impressive. i would welcome someone that doesnt look through rose tinted glasses and can make calls on what is best for teh club to move forward with a plan.

Apparently he has worked closely with Southampton's owner until he suddenly offered to resign last year due to differences with the owner's daughter regarding the club's future plans...

Sounds familiar? I can see how he must be desperate to join Milan for a change of scenery!

Interesting news if true (I mean him joining Milan). I won't lie, I know nothing about him, but what Southampton has achieved in recent years is pretty incredible.

Executive chairman, eh? Are we planning to have 3 CEOs now?
