Since the defeat to Cagliari, Milan have been in a meltdown situation. Everything and everyone is being questioned, most notably Allegri. Throughout the season, he has referred to the Champions League as his goal. So failing to qualify has harmed his chances of remaining at San Siro.
In fact, it seems like there is little to no chance that he stays, despite suggestions that Gerry Cardinale was ready to back him more than others…
It leaves the club, again, broken internally and questions will be asked of what is next for all parties.
Allegri at risk…
According to Matteo Moretto, the Italian is ‘one step away’ from being sacked, following reports from earlier today that the management are ready to look towards a new coach, perhaps Antonio Conte, who is leaving Napoli.
It appears that the decision is to sack him, so the Rossoneri will pay out the full €5.2 million salary for next season. Perhaps it will be a little less, if there were any clauses for not getting Champions League.
Either way, though, it is an expensive action.
