The Rossoneri club has officially confirmed a major change for the current season.

If the First Team is performing below expectations, it cannot be said that Milan Futuro is shining this season. The Rossoneri’s Under 23 team is third to last in the Serie C Group B standings.
The project set up by the club to enhance the talents coming out of the youth sector is not working in these debut years. There is a real risk of relegation to Serie D, and that would be a huge failure. The current placement in the playout zone worries, the direct salvation zone is 8 points away and a clear change of course is needed in the next 10 days to grab the 15th place in the standings, now occupied by Lucchese.
Milan Futuro, esonerato Bonera: annunciato il nuovo allenatore
Just to try to have a turnaround and win salvation, it was decided to exonerate Daniele Bonera. On Monday this choice, which was inevitable and perhaps even a bit late, was officially announced. For some time the performances and results had been negative, there was no need to wait to lose against Pescara on the last day of the championship as well.

Bonera was on his first experience as a coach, after years spent as an assistant on Stefano Pioli’s first team staff. Probably, it would have been better to rely on a more experienced coach to lead a young group that was facing a tricky category like Serie C.
On the heels of the announcement of Bonera’s exoneration came the one inherent in the hiring of Massimo Oddo. The former Rossoneri full-back is the new coach of future Milan. He will try to guide the team toward salvation, a challenging mission that gives him great stimulus.
He previously coached in Serie C last season, when he led Padova in the last 5 games (2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses). He had previously worked in both Serie A and Serie B. Oddo will try to make the most of the group at his disposal, perhaps returning to give space to talents such as Mattia Liberali and Francesco Camarda, who have been attached to the Primavera and First Team in recent months. Camarda returned to goal just against Pescara, unfortunately it was not enough.
