The leading candidate for the managerial position at Milan is Oliver Glasner, who in recent hours has received an offer from Feyenoord, but he only wants the Rossoneri and is waiting for a call from Gerry Cardinale, who is still continuing his discussions and considerations. If in the end, as it seems, the Austrian coach comes out on top, then for the Diavolo’s attack the name of Jean-Philippe Mateta could come back into fashion.
The Frenchman, who in January was very close to Milan but the deal later collapsed due to some knee issues discovered during medical tests, worked with Glasner at Crystal Palace and therefore knows his playing style well. This season, the two have won the Conference League together thanks to a decisive goal in the final scored by Mateta himself.
