AC Milan's ultras tore into their club's owners and board of directors in a lengthy, scathing statement ahead of their final game of the season.
The Italian giants face Monza at the San Siro on Saturday evening to cap off a dismal campaign, which has seen them struggle in ninth place in Serie A.
While there are expected to be protests in the stands during the game, some supporters took the onus to push forward their demonstration by a few hours, and were seen holding banners and hurling insults to the club's higher-ups on Saturday afternoon.
Over 3,000 Rossoneri fans gathered outside Milan's headquarters to call for RedBird chief Gerry Cardinale to sell up and leave, while also taking aim at many others behind the scenes, including senior advisor and former player Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Milan's ultras then released a statement, which began by outlining the club's astonishing decline this season. Just three years ago, Milan won Serie A, then finished fourth and second in the following seasons.
The statement read: 'This is the best response we could give, because there is no curva, club, red, orange: there are only Milanisti and Milanismo. Things that those in that building have forgotten a long time ago.
'We are back in this square three years after celebrating the best Scudetto ever. After celebrating the return to the Champions League along with Paolo Maldini.'
Despite being runners-up in the league in 2023-24, former manager Stefano Pioli departed Milan at the end of the season. He was replaced by Paulo Fonseca, who was fired and usurped by Sergio Conceicao earlier this season.
Milan's ultras took issue with how this managerial fiasco unfolded, instead arguing that the club should have aimed for an established coach like Antonio Conte - who just led Napoli to Serie A glory in his first season - last summer.
The statement continued: 'Last summer, they [the board] wanted to take things into their own hands, with arrogance, not listening to the words of the fans who wanted someone with a strong profile like Antonio Conte.
'They settled for those with a low profile, mediocre, abandoning two coaches to their fate. Paulo Fonseca found out he was sacked from journalists outside the stadium.'
The statement went on to slam the 'guilty figures' at the top of the club, including Ibrahimovic, who the fans blamed for the 'Milan Futuro' disaster.
Milan's reserve team - Milan Futuro - experienced a challenging debut season in professional football in 2024-25, culminating in relegation to Serie D.
The statement added: 'The first guilty figures are Paul Singer, who arrived as a saviour and just tried to earn from Milan. Gerry Cardinale, who used Milan for commercial ends, forgetting we are in Milano and not New York.
'Giorgio Furlani, a fine lawyer, but totally unsuited to lead a group. We can thank him for crashing out of Europe again.
'Paolo Scaroni, who for years has been at Milan with the sole objective of a stadium project that hasn't moved from Square One. He is not worth a thousandth of those who preceded him.
'Ibra the big boss, so loved as a player, so unsuited to being a consultant. To blame for the Milan Futuro disaster. Moncada, who aside from a few good signings, put together a series of dismal decisions.'
To cap off the statement, the ultras called for the club to be sold to someone who supports Milan, rather than a company who sees it as a business opportunity. They also warned that they would not let their current owners 'destroy' the club.
The final lines of the statement read: 'Leave your places to people who know the profession, hopefully people who support Milan too.
'You have killed the passion of millions of fans, annihilated Milanismo to boost revenue, treating fans as clients and tourists to fleece.
'Today the Milan fans present the bill. Pay up and leave as soon as possible. We will not let you destroy our Milan again.'
