AC Milan coach Gennaro Gattuso is the on the brink of being sacked. These are the top available 5 coaches that could replace Rino at San Siro.
JULEN LOPETEGUI
Julen Lopetegui was tasked with the difficult job of succeeding three times Champions League winner Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid. A very difficult undertaking that was further complicated by the sale of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus and the refusal to sign a substitute of the same level.
He was sacked immediately after an away defeat to Barcelona in El Clasico on 28 October. The former coach of the Spanish national team seems like a natural choice that would fit the current Milan.
That’s because Lopetegui has great experience in working with young promising players. He has won the European Champions with Spain U-19 and U-21. The national team of Spain also excelled during his two year tenure but he wasn’t given the chance to lead them in Russia. The Spanish federation of football relieved him of his duties immediately after learning he had signed with Real Madrid.

Julen Lopetegui
Through he has performed great with the national teams Lopetegui has struggled to replicate the same success on club level. The former goalkeeper is now free and hasn’t been linked with any club so far. A coach famous for supporting young talents and one that wouldn’t mind working on a tight transfer budget.

ARSENE WENGER
Perhaps the ideal coach for the bench of the Rossoneri. Arsene Wenger has officially retired and is enjoying his new adventure as pundit for Bein Sports. However, the prospect of coaching one of the most glorious European teams could be too tempting to turn down.
The appointment of Ivan Gazidis as new CEO of AC Milan has amplified rumors that Le Professeur is going to be the successor of Gennaro Gattuso at San Siro. The two have worked together for nearly 10 years at Arsenal and could team up again.
AC Milan are in need of a safe pair of hands and who better than Wenger could provide that. The French coach is a great producer of beautiful football and has a keen eye for young promising talents.
Arsene Wenger
AC Milan have one of the most promising group of youngsters in Europe with players like Donnarumma, Romagnoli, Conti, Calabria, Kessie, Cutrone and Suso who with the right guidance, under an expert like Wenger, could conquer Italy.

JOSE MOURINHO
Rather than being a concrete possibility Jose Mourinho is just a fantasy for AC Milan. The Portuguese maestro was sacked by Manchester United a few days ago but knowing Mourinho it’s guaranteed he will not stay on the sidelines for long.
According to not very reliable sources the Rossoneri management have been alerted to Mourinho’s imminent availability. Jose has an extraordinary resume with league titles in England, Italy, Spain, and Portugal, as well as two Champions League trophies but he’s destined to remain just a fantasy.
The number one reason is because AC Milan simply can not afford to sign Mourinho. He normal paycheck is at about 15 million euros per year and Milan must be very careful with their finances. His past adventure at Inter isn’t helpful either but it would be the first time Mourinho switched between enemy clubs.
Jose Mourinho
However the main motive why we won’t see the Portuguese at Milan is because of his controversial nature. The club needs serenity at the moment and that’s something Jose could hardly provide. In addition, he’s being linked with a move back to Inter.

LEONARDO JARDIM
In early November France Football reported that the Rossoneri had inquired about Leonardo Jardim. At the time Jardim had just left from Monaco following a poor start to the season.
After a string of positive results from Gennaro Gattuso’s Milan, rumors on Jardim, as well as on other coaches, started to cool off. The Portuguese coach seems inclined to take a break until the end of the season but an offer from AC Milan could change his mind.
During his four years at Monaco Leonardo Jardim build one of the best squads in Europe. Filled with young talents like Bernardo Silva, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Benjamin Mendy, Thomas Lemar, Fabinho and Mbappe, Monaco won the Ligue 1 and reached the semi-final of Champions League in 2017.
Leonardo Jardim
Leonardo Jardim was also named Ligue 1 Manager of the Year that same year for his numerous achievements. Another interesting profile that seems to suit perfect the new philosophy of Milan.

ANTONIO CONTE
The last name of the list is in fact the dream of the Rossoneri. Antonio Conte has resolved his contractual issue with Chelsea and is free to pursue a new project. A few weeks ago the former Juventus declared that he would return to coaching next summer.
Although, if the right offers arrives he admitted he could take a club even in mid-season. AC Milan have been trying to convince Conte to accept the Rossoneri for quite a while. The previous management also made a unsuccessful attempt.
Though Antonio Conte would like to return to Italy his signing is very complicated. Investments on the market are the main issue. Conte demands a team that can challenge Juventus for the Serie A title and also advance in Champions League.
Antonio Conte
UEFA have limited AC Milan’s activity on the transfer market after the breach of the Financial Fair Play. The Red and Black club has appealed the ruling at CAS but it will take months before a final decision is taken. Could Conte wait that long.
