The full picture
Matteo Moretto suggests that AC Milan could still hire Timmo Hardung, despite his recent promotion at Eintracht Frankfurt, to work alongside Markus Krösche. Moretto reported that Hardung has several offers and Milan is still considering him. Krösche holds Hardung in high regard and considers him well-prepared for his role. Hardung's potential move to Milan cannot be ruled out, according to Moretto.
Krösche and Hardung have a strong working relationship, having reimagined the Eintracht Frankfurt model together. They are credited with the work done at Frankfurt in recent years, and Milan has long been interested in hiring both. If Milan were to bring both Krösche and Hardung to the club, it would be a significant statement about the club's future project.
Moretto clarified that Krösche is expected to be Milan's new Head of Football, and he will have to fit into the existing structure designed by Gerry Cardinale. While Krösche's appointment is likely, Hardung's move is still uncertain and may be considered by Milan in the coming weeks or months if the opportunity arises.

Source context
Despite suggestions otherwise, Markus Krösche could still work with Timmo Hardung at AC Milan, despite the latter earning a promotion. With talk of Krösche joining Milan, there has always been suggestions that his number two could arrive as well. Indeed, the German’s relationship and CV with Hardung speak for themselves, with the pair reimagining the Eintracht Frankfurt model. The duo are credited almost completely with the work done across recent years and the Rossoneri have always had an interest in hiring both. Yet, it seemed that it would be impossible recently, thanks to Hardung moving into Krösche’s old role. But that may not be the case. According to Matteo Moretto, the German could still head to Italy – with Krösche – despite his new role with Frankfurt, as MilanNews relays from his appearance on Fabrizio Romano’s YouTube channel.
