Stefano Pioli’s position at Milan is under scrutiny and the next few games will be decisive for him. As stated by the well-known journalist Franco Ordine, the manager could be sacked by the club next week.
Milan have claimed just two points in the last four league games and desperately need to bounce back with a win. Tomorrow evening, they will face Fiorentina at home and it’s one of Pioli’s final chances. Not the final one, though.
As stated by Franco Ordine, who was a guest on Tutti Convocati, the game against Borussia Dortmund will be decisive. A loss there would practically end the Round of 16 dreams, and that would be a huge blow financially. It would also be the final straw for Pioli.
“Pioli took responsibility for the injury, and also for getting Milan to the top in the first eight games with a full squad. Now he hasn’t won for four games. He got nervous when it was pointed out that these games will decide his future.
“I would set my sights on Tuesday night. It’s true that Fiorentina could push Milan out of the top four. However, the decisive deadline is Borussia Dortmund. If he doesn’t beat them, let’s prepare for a change of coach on Wednesday,” he stated.
The game against Fiorentina is scheduled for 20:45 tomorrow (Saturday) and the youngster Francesco Camarda will be called up. Given all the injuries and absences, it won’t be easy for the Rossoneri.
