Many are indicating Montella as the real reason for AC Milan’s disappointing start of the season. Already names for a possible successor have begun to circulate.
After the sacking from Bayern Munich last week, many have started talking about Carlo Ancelotti as sure next coach of AC Milan, given the many beautiful memories the rossoneri fans have when he led the team to two Champions League trophies.
Vincenzo Montella’s position is still solid, despite the two consecutive defeats with Sampdoria and Roma before the international break, and the Milanese management continues to defend the technician who this summer renewed his contract until 2019. But according to the common opinion, regardless of the final result in classification, Montella will leave the rossoneri at the end of the season, because the Chinese project requires a more qualitative and experienced coach to reach the top areas of the table.
The rumor regarding the future of Milan bench that today came from Radio Radio is really sensational. Former striker Roberto Pruzzo, currently sports commentator, has admitted that he possesses reliable news on the name that will eventually replace Montella in 2018: “I was told that Maurizio Sarri will be the next coach of AC Milan. Now he is focused on winning the league with Napoli, but from very reliable sources I know that the rossoneri club has already blocked him.” A news that, if confirmed, would give the red and blacks a coach with great capabilities, but to date it is practically impossible to asses the truthfulness of the statement.
