AC Milan cannot be counted out of the Thiago Motta sweepstakes just yet as a journalist has claimed that the club are ‘working under the radar’.
According to the latest update from Antonio Vitiello for MilanNews, Antonio Conte has had ‘no direct and official contact with Milan’ and he is ‘unlikely to be Milan’s next manager’ as things stand at the moment, despite the pressure from some fans.
Meanwhile, Motta has ‘had a verbal agreement with Juve for some time’ but as long as it remains verbal and not written anything can still happen, as Milan have learned when it comes to transfers.
The next few days are crucial in deciding what Motta’s fate will be. Bologna would like to keep him for their maiden Champions League campaign and renew his deal, so they will have a meeting with the former midfielder.
Juve seem ready to replace Max Allegri with the former PSG and Inter man, but Milan are there ‘working under the radar and with the lights off’ on the idea.
Milan’s process to find Stefano Pioli’s heir is ongoing but it must be said that Motta ticks a lot of boxes on paper, given that he knows the league and has a track record for developing young players.
“Under the radar” yet it comes out so people can read it…i call bs
Motta reminds me a lot of Arteta. We’ll see though.
This is reminding me of Marcus Thuram’s deal all over again.
Tons of articles about Milan interest and weeks of speculations about the talks and contract with Inter being mentioned as they made some contacts but Milan is crushing it.
Then in one week Marotta finishes the deal while the management was watching with a big stupid smile
Next year will be much more difficult, better to hire a proven coach in Italy otherwise keeping Pioli will be the best alternative.
Keep Pioli for another year is not a bad idea.
For inter, yes
I hear you, this year’s campaign was disappointing compared to the previous years under Pioli.
But to be fair there was a lot of injuries in the sauad this year and several new players coming from outside Serie A.
Also, which one of the current candidates gives you Scudetto vibes ?
Beside Conte, none of them. And besides Conte and Motta none of them will turn Milan into a nightmare for Inter specially those who are heavily marketed by Mendez.
Lol.
You’re right. It’s not bad. Its terrible.
Which one of the current candidates do you think will finish in top four even in a bad season ?
For AC Milan it is
Have you watched the games?
Keep Pioli as ball boy or what
Proven coach in itally? Yeah, since you guys doesnt like conte, it will be mazzari or Ranieri.
Italiano is the obvious choice if we can’t get Motta. Two successive European finals with a crap Fiorentina team is amazing.
Crap Fiorentina team?
Fiorentina has a way better squad than Bologna and is 8th or 9th.
Why doesn’t he have a success in serie A?
Why is Fiorentina moving on from him?
European finals?
He is playing in the conference league vs. some mid table teams from some mid leagues.
He’s had a very good season but Mr Motta will be a gamble…..
Where ever he goes and as a young manager I wish him all the best.
“working under the radar and with the lights off” – and yet everyone can read these cheap marketing articles 😂😂😂
The management are looking for a manager with champions league experience…so they won’t go for Motta
It is under radar and yet you have the news. You have world class intels.
They better move fast, because I have a feeling Juventus will go from verbal to written on Thursday, after the Coppa Italia final.
If Juve wanted to add 15m salary of Allegri into their list of cost without work… (after Cristiano) then they are welcome. Anyway they are still 3rd even with 2 months of bad results and likely still get champions league next season.
Same with us, we are even better than them as we are in 2nd position, that says a lot about our progress tbh. Before Pioli comes we are mid table team without European competition, when Pioli will leave, 2nd place is considered failure of a season (with one Scudetto as bonus) 😂
O Milan deve afastar a ideia de Conceição, Gallardo, Lopetegui, Sarri porque esses treinadores não trabalham com jovens, em seus planteis nunca saiu uma estrela de esfera mundial
Milan deve focar-se em Thiago Motta e Roberto de Zerbi
Pls bring motta, he knew how to deal with Inter di Merda. And also Signing calafiori and jay-z would be easier with Motta presence right.
