La Gazzetta dello Sport in today's print edition spoke about the search for the Milan coach who, starting from the 2024-2025 season, should replace Stefano Pioli on the Rossoneri bench: the candidates in pole position, at the moment, seem to be two Portuguese, namely Sergio Conceicao (Porto) and Paulo Fonseca (Lille).
Milan, as reported by the newspaper, wants to arrive at the choice of the new coach without haste, calmly, reaching the communication of the chosen one, presumably, at the end of the season.
When Pioli will have been bid farewell by the club at Casa Milan with all the affection he deserves.
Fans invoke Antonio Conte, who, however, is not liked by the club, and they would see Thiago Motta well, for whom, however, Juventus is in a clear advantage. Therefore, Sergio Conceicao and Paulo Fonseca, according to the national sports newspaper, return to being the reference names for the role of AC Milan coach. With an important update.
Conceicao is liked by AC Milan fans: they would see him well, for characteristics and personality, as an alternative to the Conte dream. And he, in these days, will meet with Porto's President, André Villas-Boas, to discuss his future. He had renewed until June 30, 2028, but with the old President, Jorge Pinto da Costa. Now the situation could really change and it seems that Milan is a very welcome destination for him.
Therefore, it will not be long before we understand whether it will be possible to see the former right-winger of Lazio, Parma, and Inter on the Rossoneri bench.
