Deciding the next head coach is proving to be a difficult task, and until a sporting director is appointed, no decisions will be made on the touchline.
Picking a head coach is a difficult task to get right, after all, the chosen candidate must align with your club’s identity, as well as being able to work with the current pool of talent. This season, Milan have struggled to find that.
Paulo Fonseca was a poor hire, and he left before Christmas, whilst Sergio Conceicao is seemingly destined to share the same fate, barring a minor miracle. So the focus for many is shifting to a new head coach.
Several names are linked to the post, and there have been several debates about who would be ‘right’ to lead the club’s new project forward, but until a new sporting director is found, the conversations are rather null.
Nevertheless, Luigi Sala, a former Rossonero, spoke to Tuttosport about the situation, and Milan News have relayed his comments.
“Who would I bet on as the future coach of Milan? I really like Italiano. He’s young, but he’s already achieved great results in all the teams he’s coached, proving to have brilliant ideas. I’d take him.”
If Conte is unavailable, then Italiano would be a good option. Allegri is past his time, de Zerbi and Motta clearly are not fit for high-levels, and Gasperini apparently can’t work in big-club pressure levels.
yeah Conte the guy who is crumbling from a title race with playing 1 game a week
You say Allegri is past his time but Conte is somehow still good when he had to resort to Napoli when looking for a job.
Napoli’s team is not good for a Scudetto race. It is quite inferior to Inter, and also inferior to Milan, Juve and Atalanta. They ended up 10th last season. And they replaced Kvara with Okafor. Who would have a easy run with such a team?
Bro, he’s having to field the likes of Gilmore and McTominay. Are you serious? Not even David Blaine could make that “magic trick” work…
there’s really no need to think about a new coach until we have an sf and even then conceicao can stay if he wins copa and thee rest of the rafie games

Italiano is rubbish why do we want rubbish gasperini is the only person can bring milan back to top
You are right. The revolution should be started with the old man 🤣
I’m no soccer expert but I don’t understand why two coaches insisted on a 4-2-3-1 instead of a 3-person backline with Theo and Giminez/Calabria/now Walker as wingbacks.
Theo is a poor defender. But has great speed and great offensive instincts. As a defensive back, he has let his backline out to dry so many times this year. He should not be depended on for any defensive responsibilities.
Having 3 center back types shores up the defense and reduces the time that there’s only 2 backs left on defensive. Walker can play on the backline or wingback. I do like Giminez there.
I don’t agree with him . Italiano is not prove anything but Sergio Conseisao had prove winner cups with porto again &again . In addition to, if sergio stay at Milan next year he will bring us best result than Italiano . When you come to milan there are so many pressure than Bologna Italiano couldn’t fit for milan for me.
To me if conte is not available, we better continue with our coach.
