Over the past few days, rumours have intensified regarding Oliver Glasner’s potential arrival as the new head coach of AC Milan.
Having been linked within days of Massimiliano Allegri’s sacking over two weeks ago, it seems as though Glasner is on the verge of becoming the next Milan manager. Both The Times in England and MilanNews in Italy have claimed that the Austrian is in advanced talks over taking the job.

There was a six-hour meeting in Germany between Glasner and the RedBird management, conducted by the club’s owner Gerry Cardinale and his right-hand man Zlatan Ibrahimovic. It seemed to be a positive one, and now things are heading towards conclusion.
Of course, given that this is Milan, nothing can be considered done until there are signatures on the dotted line. It would be an intriguing appointment though, given Glasner has not managed in Italy but has won silverware in Germany with Eintracht Frankfurt and with Crystal Palace in England.
The other big mystery to be resolved is whether Ralf Rangnick will arrive with him. The pair know each other well from their time in the Red Bull galaxy, though it is believed that the German has asked for guarantees that have not been handed over yet.

Yes. Leave the football business to Rangnick and let Zlatan keep his holidays.
Milan need some who understands how to run a football club.
Get Glasner and Wharton please!!!
Wharton will never happen. the only one guaranteed from Crystal is Mateta
I am sure I said it was going to be Oliver & Ralph, a few days ago…., tbh I think it was the worst kept secret in Milan.
Time for Gila, Goretzka and Valovic and Mois Kean if Rafa leaves….
more like Mateta, 2 CAM, CB and LB
the other 4, are hard to predict… Brahim Diaz, Atta, Gila, Zalewski would be my pick; but Ragnick has his own system for tracking
Mateta and centerback Maxence Lacroix could come with Glasner from Palace. Lacroix also played for Glasner in Bundesliga (and Tomori sucks so we should get rid of him and upgrade centerback position).
Bro we need Canvot if any of the backline players from CP.
Glasner guarantees stability in the club. Alessandro Nesta said that there is chaos in the club. let’s hope that this ‘chaos’ will also over.
