SportsTalk April 27 According to “Gazzetta dello Sport” news, Milan has regarded Lopetegui as the number one candidate for the new coach. Milan boss Cardinale (Red Birds) Capital Managing Partner and CEO) spoke highly of him.
Cardinale is the main person in charge of AC Milan’s coaching selection. The team is currently looking for a coach who is good at managing young players, and also hopes that the coach can give some transfer suggestions. Just like Pioli last year, Loftus-Cheek and Pulisic are the players the coach wants.
Milan has decided to fire Pioli this summer. Although the team is currently ranked second in the league, it has lost two derby games. , all three cup competitions were also eliminated. All this made Milan executives feel that the cooperation with Pioli was over.
Milan’s new coach candidates also include Fonseca, Tedesco, Van Bommel, Galthie, Thiago Mo Tower etc. But Lopetegui is currently in the lead. Compared to West Ham United’s offer, Lopetegui is more inclined to go to Milan. Milan also believes that compared to other coaches, he has more achievements and competition experience. He defeated Inter Milan to win the Europa League in the 2019-20 season, and has also served as the head coach of the Spanish national team and Real Madrid. Perhaps the Spanish coach can achieve redemption at AC Milan.
