The long journey of Massimiliano Allegri and Milan lasted 11 and a half years; and today, they are back together. The Rossoneri need to start from scratch after an extremely difficult season that ended without qualification for any European competition. They changed two coaches, going from Fonseca to Conceição, but the hoped-for spark never arrived. The Italian Super Cup was not enough to confirm the Portuguese coach, and the club decided to make a change and bet once again on Allegri as the coach for the 2025/26 season.

How much will Allegri earn at AC Milan?
Max Allegri was the top name on Aurelio De Laurentiis' list for his Napoli in case of a split with Antonio Conte. In the end, the two reached an agreement to continue together, so Milan moved decisively for the return of the coach who had already spent four years with the Rossoneri from 2010 to 2014. He has signed a two-year contract with an option for a third, and his salary is 6 million euros including bonuses. There was never any concrete interest from Roma in Allegri, as they were considering different profiles to start a new project.
Allegri has signed a two-year contract with an option for a third; the coach will be involved in the transfer market and will have a say in important decisions. Among Max’s first requests is the retention of Mike Maignan, who will be offered a contract extension (his current deal expires in June 2026); the same year that Theo Hernandez’s contract expires, for whom there is strong interest from Saudi Arabia. The coach’s idea is to build the team around Rafael Leao, who can become the cornerstone of Milan’s future.
