AC Milan, after yet another disappointing result last night when they drew in the final minutes of the match against Salernitana, have not dismissed Stefano Pioli. The Rossoneri coach is, however, walking on thin ice at this point. But for now, he is confirmed as Rossoneri coach.
An important detail from today's training, the first after the draw against Salernitana: Pioli led the session alone without any manager by his side, as per Sky Sport Italia's network.
Will Milan sack Stefano Pioli?
Currently, his position is not as secure as before, but the real issue remains the same: there are no valid alternatives available in January. Top managers demand salaries that are beyond reach, and it's not certain they can improve the situation, considering the problem with Pioli's staff.
Is it empirically certain that by letting everyone go, the situation would improve? Instinctively one might say, "Let them do it and see what happens." But in reality, it's a huge question mark regarding the athletic preparation and the injury dossier.
So, currently, Pioli's situation is precarious, but not yet at the point of feeling the trapdoor open beneath him, as described by Milan News.
It is clear, though, that poor performances displayed in the coming matches against Sassuolo, Cagliari, and Empoli could really force the club to finally make a decision about his future.
It's obvious and clear that poor performances and results against Sassuolo, Cagliari, and Empoli could force the club to make an important decision about him.
It would be inevitable also because the atmosphere around Pioli is becoming heavy. It's hard to think he might resign, especially considering he has a contract in place until June 30, 2025, worth 4.5 million euros per year.
