Luciano Spalletti is “still on Milan’s radar for next season” as doubts grow over whether Ralf Rangnick will arrive, a report claims.
There is widespread speculation in the media at present regarding the
future of Milan’s head coach position, with some outlets claiming
Rangnick is the man CEO Ivan Gazidis has chosen to take over as manager
and sporting director.
However, uncertainty has since crept
in given the Coronavirus pandemic which has affected Italy particularly
badly, leading to doubts that the German would be willing to undertake
such a project in a difficult moment.
According to il
Corriere dello Sport (via Calciomercato.it), Rangnick is still top of
the wishlist of the former Arsenal chief, but staying with Stefano Pioli
is an option that should not be discarded.
Nonetheless, the
paper mentions the possibility of hiring Spalletti, a coach who was
heavily linked with Milan after Giampaolo’s sacking in November. The
former Inter boss still has a contract until 2021 with the Nerazzurri
but is the main alternative to Rangnick in case of separation from
Pioli.
