Pioli meeting today or tomorrow as Milan narrow shortlist to two candidates

Stefano Pioli is expected to sit down with the AC Milan management between today and tomorrow (Monday) to discuss the termination of his contract, a report claims. Once that has been settled, the Rossoneri will pick their new manager.

The managerial saga has been going on for a few weeks now and most fans are probably tired of it already. Fortunately, the saga is now nearing its conclusion as Milan have just one game left of the season.

According to today’s edition of Tuttosport, as cited by MilanNews, Pioli will have a meeting with Milan between today and tomorrow to discuss the future. As his contract will be terminated in advance, with one year still left, they will have to reach an agreement on the severance pay.

Once Milan have sorted the termination, which is expected to be smooth, they will make a final decision on the new manager. The favourites right now are Paulo Fonseca and Mark van Bommel, both appreciated for their attacking playing style (4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1).

Roberto De Zerbi has been mentioned amid the Brighton departure, but Milan have decided not to move forward with their interest in the Italian. In any case, we just need to wait a few more days now.
