Roberto De Zerbi has been leading Brighton to new heights since his arrival to the Premier League in September 2022. The club is now in seventh position in the league and is in the UEFA Europa League competition. The Italian tactician is known for his unique style of play, always favouring an attacking way of playing football since his time at Sassuolo. He has been linked with several clubs in England, but also with Milan in Serie A.
SportItalia's journalist and director, Michele Criscitiello, has explained in an editorial piece of his that De Zerbi could indeed leave the Premier League, despite top five English clubs following him. He has caught attention of some clubs in Spain as well. The crazy surprise and idea, however, could be to return to Italy, and more particularly, to AC Milan.
As per the journalist, De Zerbi is "in love with Milan". After Brescia (and maybe Foggia). The Rossoneri club is in his DNA. Having grown up in Milanello, he could do for the Rossoneri as a coach what he couldn't achieve as a player. There is only one certainty in De Zerbi's career: he will never coach Atalanta, as per the source.
