Antonio Conte set to join AC Milan as next manager
According to reports, Antonio Conte is being lined up as the next manager of AC Milan. The Italian manager has been out of work since being sacked by Tottenham last March. Milan boss Stefano Pioli led them to the Serie A title in 2022 but his side are third and way off the pace this season. Pioli is facing the sack and Milan are readying Conte as his replacement, according to Football Italia.
Terms already agreed with former Inter Milan boss
The report claims that AC Milan have already agreed terms with Antonio Conte. Conte has reportedly held talks with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is a senior advisor to Milan. Conte was previously linked to Napoli but turned down the opportunity as he wanted a longer sabbatical to spend time with his family. He has also stated that he will not accept a project halfway through a season, as he regretted doing so when he took over at Spurs in November 2021.
Rivalry with Inter Milan not expected to harm chances
Antonio Conte previously managed Milan's rivals, Inter, from 2019 until 2021. However, his association with Inter is not thought to harm his chances of joining AC Milan. The two clubs have a friendly rivalry known as the "derby of the cousins". Conte, 54, also failed to rule out a potential return to Juventus in the future, whom he won three Serie A titles with as a manager.
Conte looking forward to making the most of his free time
When asked about a potential return to Juventus, Antonio Conte said, "Marriages are done in two, you can always dream and hope to get married another time. The important thing is that there is sharing of thoughts. Now I want to make the most of my free time, continuing to study to broaden my knowledge."
