Among the many names that the management of Milan has written on its list for the role of Rossoneri coach and successor to Stefano Pioli, in the last few hours, the name of Sergio Conceiçao, coach of Porto for seven seasons, has emerged from the fray. With the "dragons," the coach has won 10 trophies but may have reached the end of his experience.
In reality, last week Conceiçao had renewed until 2028, but it was an agreement valid only with the former president, the historic Pinto da Costa. What has changed? Simple, Pinto da Costa is no longer the president.
After decades, da Costa lost the elections in favor of André Villas-Boas, who was also a coach at Porto. Therefore, the agreement with Conceiçao could be reconsidered, according to a clause provided in the same contract. Decisive will be the meeting early next week, after the commitment in the league this weekend, which Conceiçao himself will have with Villas-Boas. The feeling in Portugal, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport this morning, is that divorce is more likely than the continuation of the marriage.
