The Sky Sport 24 journalist assigned to cover Milan, Peppe Di Stefano, talked about the situation concerning Massimiliano Allegri:
"Last night we went to bed with the idea that Italiano was the main candidate for the Milan bench, and that probably was the case. This morning, the meeting in Bologna between the coach’s agents and the club led to an almost-complete renewal. So now it's about Massimiliano Allegri, but that’s a matter of timing: Milan must and wants to try to close the deal within two days. Will they manage? That will depend on the offers they make and how convincing Milan’s proposal is."
Di Stefano continues to talk about Milan's situation:
"If they wait two days, it’s clear that Napoli could come back into play if Conte were to leave; we don't know what will happen with Inter’s bench after the Champions League final. The further you go, the greater the risk for Milan. If this is really their goal, they need to try to close it within a few hours at most."
The journalist added:
"Every detail right now, every phone call, can simply make the difference. The Rossoneri club cannot afford to make the wrong choice, and Allegri would mean playing it safe—he’s a coach with great experience and would be the right glue after such a disastrous year."
