Milan clash/ Allegri and Ibrahimovic fight in a restaurant, Igli Tare intervened

Monica Colombo, a journalist for Corriere della Sera, revealed a behind-the-scenes look at the relationship between Allegri and Ibrahimovic. According to her, "the rift between Allegri and Ibrahimovic, which has roots far back in time, took place in a restaurant and in the presence of Furlani and Tara, who had to physically separate the coach and the Swede," she was quoted as saying by Italian media.

The Italian journalist claims that the tensions between them were not new, but had ancient roots and that the team's positive results had helped keep the problems out of public attention. In her analysis, Monica Colombo emphasizes that the red and black environment was shaken by internal tensions.

According to her, "Milan is splitting into factions" and many old conflicts have resurfaced as soon as the results have not been in the team's favor. Another element mentioned was Ibrahimovic's absence from the team's premises. Colombo claims that the Swede had not been seen in the dressing rooms at 'San Siro' and at the 'Milanello' training center for months.

According to the same report, the breaking point between Allegri and Ibrahimovic was initially related to a technical decision about the team's third goalkeeper for next season, but this is said to have been only the spark that rekindled older tensions.

Colombo also claims that Allegri did not take well to information about possible contact with Antonio Cassano, while another source of disagreement has been Ibrahimovic's intervention with tactical advice to players such as Youssouf Fofana and Rafael Leao, which, according to reports, differed from the coach's instructions during training.

President Gerry Cardinale has decided to make a complete revolution at Milan after the club's failure to qualify for next season's Champions League. The owner of the red and black club has taken the drastic decision to change the sporting and technical direction of the team, dismissing coach Massimiliano Allegri, sporting director Igli Tare, executive director Giorgio Furlani and technical director Geoffrey Moncada.

Cardinale has embarked on a major reorganization, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic expected to play a key role in rebuilding the team.
