There have been many rumours since he left Bayern Munich a few weeks ago, including those of a Milan return. However, according to Chinese media, Ancelotti is set to become the new manager of Guangzhou Evergrande, as he wants to return to football and not take a break as first reported.
With that said, it seems we won’t see a comeback at Milan, which is understandable considering the Rossoneri’s current situation. Should Montella get sacked, then Paulo Sousa, Walter Mazzari and Gennaro Gattuso are likely candidates for the job.
