When it was reported that Milan were looking for someone to lead the sporting project forward, Rangnick’s name shot to the forefront of conversations quickly. In fact, it seemed that an agreement was close for a while.
However, updates recently have not been positive, with the Austrian FA even seemingly overly positive in recent days about their chances of retaining the manager.
Rangnick rejects Milan
It had been reported that the Rossoneri would have until Monday to make a decision. However, Gazzetta dello Sport now reports that he has ‘grown tired of waiting’ and rejected the offer from the club.
The Diavolo, as the report states, have disappeared from talks, leaving him frustrated and he has now decided that enough is enough, opting to continue with Austria instead.
Daniele Longo also reported that things were heading towards a black smoke, another way of saying it’s not happening, minutes later. So, Milan have missed out on the first major part of their rebuild due to themselves.
Oliver Glasner can still arrive, but whether other targets will be concerned by this situation is certainly a worry.
