AC Milan have identified Tony D’Amico as one of the key candidates for the sporting director role and with the Atalanta man, according to a report, Maurizio Sarri could become the head coach. 

D’Amico has been heavily linked with the Rossoneri in the last couple of months, and especially since the Fabio Paratici talks fell through. Currently under contract with Atalanta, the negotiations wouldn’t be easy but Giorgio Furlani is keen on hiring the 45-year-old.

According to today’s edition of La Repubblica, via Il Garante, D’Amico is indeed the favourite for the sporting director job. In case he’s appointed by the Rossoneri, the chances of seeing Maurizio Sarri – currently a free agent – could increase significantly.

Sarri is a manager who knows how to work with youngsters and develop them into great players, which would fit well with D’Amico’s expertise (as we have seen at Atalanta). Milan have also been keeping tabs on him for quite some time, as we first revealed in January last year.

It remains to be seen if D’Amico will be the chosen one, with Rossoneri CEO Giorgio Furlani expected to continue talks in the coming weeks. Igli Tare remains an option as well, so there are alternative routes to consider here.

  1. Allergri is good but sarri is perfect match for current AC.Milan saturation, cause he can easily create a team from scratch but Allergei needs big players who are already good 👍 Trust me guys Sarri is far better for us .🫡🫡🫡

  2. Sarri’s system takes a while to really execute and it only works if everyone buys in. Does this Milan look like everyone is on the same page?

    We need a stabilizer just to Elliott can sell off and let someone else with brains and commitment to start a project.

  3. I’m for anything that smacks of Sarri. This team badly needs an identity, something that only Sarri can give(maybe De Zerbi). Even if it means giving him the players he needs so be it.

  4. Everyone trashes Allegri when, Sarri’s teams always finished below Allegris (Other than when juve got 25 points taken off). Allegri is far superior. The only reason Sarri won the scudetto with Juve was with the team that Allegri built.
