A report has suggested that Zlatan Ibrahimovic wants Matthias Jaissle to be the new manager of AC Milan and it could well happen.
There have been plenty of switches in the managerial race recently and it would not be a surprise if more was to come in the next few days, if not longer. At this rate, it feels strange to not be discussing a change in some part of the plans.

Nevertheless, there may be a new favourite for the job.
Jaissle appreciated by Ibra and Cardinale
According to Daniele Longo, the German is willing to give up his €11 million salary to join the club and this may tip the scales in his favour. In fact, Calciomercato.com report that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is pushing for the manager’s arrival after being left ‘bewitched’ by him in early talks.
A meeting took place between the German and the Rossoneri in London this week, with Ibrahimovic and Gerry Cardinale present and he left all the duo impressed. He plays a ‘modern, attacking style of football’ which has excited them and the headhunters recruited to help recruit a new coach.
However, Cardinale still holds reservations. It would take €6m to release him from his contract with Al Ahli, which he is not massively keen on. However, there can be no denying that he admires the coach.
As Matteo Moretto reported, contacts are constant between the parties, so things could change quickly.
Ben, make up your mind. In one article you wrote that Ibro wants Amorim, only for him to be bewitched by Jaissle. Ridiculous journalism.
You do know they cite other sources right?
I know. That is why they are not serious.
Yep. They still (probably) have to pay off Allegri, €5 million and then they are going to spend another €6 million to free Jaissle? That’s €11 million. Why would they do that?!?! I’m sick of Ibrahimovic. If Furlani was still around, I’m guessing Glasner and Rangnick would have been signed.
Because Furlani would have been OK replacing himself? Stupid comment.
Anyiiy will cost we need Mattias jassle we don’t need any other coach to us we are done we finally need jassle and then lest sign other area of the management we are lacking.
Good decision
