“Milan with Allegri. But Reijnders and Maignan are for sale,”
That's the headline published by La Repubblica today — on newsstands now. Spotlight on the coaching carousel that is ready to be triggered in Serie A, with the Rossoneri close to finalizing a deal with the former coach, who after a sabbatical year is ready to get back on track, signing a three-year contract (a two-year deal worth 5 million euros with an option for a third) with the Devil.
“A manager-coach, a centralizer with a strong personality, good at dealing with temperamental stars”
Max Allegri is the coach chosen by Milan for their revival. The new sporting director, Igli Tare, after receiving a no from Vincenzo Italiano — who is set to renew his contract with Bologna — pounced on Max, who was tempted by Napoli but now seems to stay away as Conte looks likely to remain.
However, in the new Milan, two major sales could happen immediately (Allegri, who hasn’t missed a single Rossoneri game this year, has already been informed): Tijjani Reijnders and Mike Maignan, as relayed via Milannews.it.
Reijnders is headed to Manchester City (an offer of at least 60 million euros is expected), and goalkeeper Maignan is also set to be sold: his contract renewal has been stalled for months, and at the signing stage, it was frozen by the club. The Frenchman has grown impatient, to the point of considering staying one more year and then leaving on a free transfer, but Milan can’t afford that and is considering an immediate sale.
