Calciomercato.com, meanwhile, claims the Diavolo will hold informal talks with UEFA in Nyon tomorrow.

The website explains there is ‘maximum serenity’ on Milan’s part as their board look to soften UEFA’s position on their finances.

The governing body told them to break even by 2021 or have their European ban restored, but Elliott would be of the opinion that it needs three more years to restructure the club.

In the meantime Milan have contested UEFA’s punishment by appealing through the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), with a verdict expected next month.
