The Sérgio Conceição era at AC Milan is already over. Appointed mid-season to revive a struggling side, the Portuguese coach failed to deliver the spark the club needed. Now, a familiar face could return: Massimiliano Allegri.
Brought in last December to replace Paulo Fonseca, Conceição aimed to instill discipline and attacking intent. But with an 8th-place finish in Serie A and no European qualification, his spell ends in failure. A Supercoppa Italiana victory over Lazio was a rare highlight, but defeats like the Coppa Italia final loss to Bologna (0-1) sealed his fate.
Milan thanked the coach for his professionalism in a brief statement, closing a chapter that never quite got going.
Allegri Poised to Return
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Allegri is the top candidate to replace Conceição. Free since leaving Juventus, the 56-year-old tactician previously led Milan from 2010 to 2014, winning a Scudetto. Talks are said to be well underway.
Milan Targets Stability and Experience
After several unstable seasons, AC Milan wants to re-establish solid foundations. Allegri’s return would bring familiarity, tactical stability, and top-level experience. With the club eager to avoid another downward spiral, this move could mark the start of a new era.
