Stefano Pioli will not be AC Milan's coach next season. This news has been known for some time, so much so that the Rossoneri are already working on his successor, with Paulo Fonseca being the top favorite to replace him. However, the main news is that by Saturday (likely tomorrow, at the latest Saturday morning), it will be officially announced.
By Saturday morning, the Rossoneri club is expected to release a statement announcing that Stefano Pioli will not be the coach of Milan next season. In the note, the club will thank Pioli for his work, allowing him to thank the public and players and to receive a farewell from the entire environment.
This decision has been made in a very calm and highly collaborative atmosphere among all parties involved, from Ibrahimovic and Furlani to Pioli himself and his entourage.
The match against Salernitana on Saturday evening at 8:45 PM CEST will be Stefano Pioli's last time on the Milan bench. He will receive a farewell from the fans at San Siro. Alongside the coach, Olivier Giroud (who will play for Los Angeles FC) and Simon Kjaer will also bid farewell to the Milan world.
Arriving at Milan in October 2019, Pioli reached the pinnacle of his adventure with the team by winning the league title in the 2021/2022 season. The following year, he reached the Champions League semifinal, which was lost to Inter.
