Il derby will probably be his last as coach of Milan. Stefano Pioli’s hours are numbered and in the meantime the fans have already abandoned him some time ago, enraged by the elimination in the quarter-finals of the Europa League in the double match against Roma. In the event of Inter’s victory in the Stracittadina, the Nerazzurri would officially be ‘Champions of Italy’, taking the second star. What the Devil’s fans don’t want, hoping for a new name at the end of the season. They have already chosen the leader: Antonio Conte. The club, however, in addition to having flatly denied the rumors that had emerged in recent months, more for an economic reason than anything else. The Apulian is being chased by Napoli and has suitors abroad and at the moment his arrival remains complicated.
Second Tuttosportthe hypothesis that teases is that of the ex Marc Van Bommel. The Dutchman won the Belgian championship last season with Antwerp, this year he finished the regular season in third place, but he started the championship badly with three defeats. Van Bommel was Ibrahimovic’s teammate at the Rossoneri, assisted like him by Mino Raiola, who arrived in Milan in January 2011 to win his 18th title at the end of the season. He knows the environment well and would have no fears with the pressure of Italian football.
Among the other names, first and foremost that of Thiago Motta, who at the end of 2023 was at the top of the list. However, Milan let go and today the Bologna coach ended up in Juventus’ sights. He also likes Roberto De Zerbi, but the Brighton manager seems intent on staying in the Premier League. The Julen Lopetegui trail remains hot, even if the 57-year-old Spaniard, former manager of Spain, Real Madrid and Sevilla, seems close to West Ham according to Tuttomercato Web. The alternatives are Francesco Farioli of Nice, Paulo Fonseca of Lille (former coach of Roma) , Raffaele Palladino and Alberto Gilardino. Among the options evaluated in recent months are Marco Rose, even though he still has a year left on his contract with Leipzig, and Marcelo Gallardo, now at Al-Ittihad.
