According to a report, there is a significant chance that Stefano Pioli could have lost his job by now if two other head coaches were available.
As reported in today’s edition of La Repubblica (via MilanNews), the confidence in Pioli’s long-term role as Milan’s coach has seemingly disappeared, prompting the club’s leaders to reassess their future strategy.
At present, Ignazio Abate is the only potential replacement, but those in charge do not believe the Primavera boss is currently prepared for the role. Therefore, the idea of him serving as a caretaker manager is currently ruled out.
The Rossoneri initially considered Christophe Galtier and Marcelo Gallardo as potential alternatives.
However, Galtier subsequently joined Al-Duhail in Qatar, and Gallardo moved to Al Ittihad in Saudi Arabia, complicating the club’s plans and almost forcing them to retain Pioli.
Looking ahead, reports indicate that Pioli is still under scrutiny, with the next three games playing a pivotal role in determining his tenure. However, starting from the next season, the hierarchy aims to appoint either Antonio Conte, strongly supported by Zlatan Ibrahimovic, or Roberto De Zerbi.
