Carlo Pellegatti, speaking on 'Pressing', commented on the Rossoneri's head coach's situation at Milan:
"Fonseca instead of Conte? Of course, there are regrets. Ibrahimovic explained the decision not to go with Conte by saying that Milan was looking for a coach, not a manager. But right now, Paulo, for better or worse, is acting as a manager because he's always alone at Milanello. They say there are always contacts, but phone calls are one thing; the players need to see the management. The day after the heavy 2-0 defeat against Napoli, with Milan trailing by 11 points – or 8 if they win the makeup game against Bologna – there was no one from management at Milanello.
Fonseca is acting like the manager, so Milan might as well have hired Conte, says Pellegatti...
"Milan's coach, for better or worse, is acting as the manager. In that case, leaving him alone at Milanello, they might as well have hired Conte. Would Conte have accepted Milan? He would have come running with great enthusiasm to join the Rossoneri."
