From winning the Super Cup with a cigar in his mouth to three consecutive defeats and ninth place in the standings. It seems like the plot of a horror movie, but instead, it's the trajectory of Sergio Conceicao on the Milan bench.
The Portuguese coach is liked by a good portion of the fanbase for his leader-like statements, but the results on the field tell the story of a team that hasn't improved its position, quite the opposite.
Milan's confidence in Conceicao confirmed
According to information relayed via Calciomercato.com, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Geoffrey Moncada went into the locker room after the match to show their support for the team in a moment that would be an understatement to describe as difficult.
The two executives confirmed their confidence in Sergio Conceicao: a decision not to be taken for granted considering the three consecutive defeats and the early elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Feyenoord.
Nine points behind, which could become eleven if Juventus beats Verona in the Monday night match, is a clear sign of surrender from Milan in the fight for fourth place.
Sergio Conceicao is certainly not the primary culprit of such a disappointing season, but he has clear responsibilities that will seal his departure at the end of the season.
With the goal of leaving by adding the Coppa Italia to the Italian Super Cup to his personal collection of successes, in addition to Milan’s.
