Massimiliano Allegri at AC Milan. Reading the newspapers, there does not seem to be much doubt about who will be the next coach next season. Giorgio Furlani, after all, has made his choice, but it will take time for official announcements. Then again, there is still a season to go and Sergio Conceicao wants to play his very few chances to keep the Devil’s bench.
It is hard to know if qualifying for the next Champions League and winning the Coppa Italia would be enough, but trying is a must for an AC Milan that needs to hang on to its dream of reaching fourth place.
Ignoring the rumors that continue to bring Massimiliano Allegri to the Rossoneri, however, is virtually impossible. Talking about it again is Giovanni Galeone, who knows the coach from Livorno really well: “Allegri has so much desire to return to the bench and his preference is Italy,” the former coach said to the microphones of TeleLombardia. “Milan? It is a very good team that is doing much less than it could do. Players like Reijnders and Pulisic have them in very few. With Max, Milan would have Loftus-Cheek and Maignan back at the top. Only a couple of defenders would then be enough to aim high.”

Galeone clearly would bet with his eyes closed on Allegri: “He knows how to enhance the players at his disposal and how to adapt to the needs of the club. He does with what is made available to him by the club. With Paratici at Juve the relationship was not the best in life, but in soccer you don’t hold grudges…”
The former coach thus confirms those who argued that relations between the former Juve manager and Allegri are not idyllic, but at the same time that the two could quietly work together.
Then comes a joke also about Leao: “Who doesn’t like him, how can you question his qualities? He is someone who can solve your game with one play. He has formidable qualities. Max Allegri definitely likes him as he likes all great players.”
Finally, Galeone does not rule out a landing at Inter by Allegri: “If Inzaghi does not win the championship, I don’t see why they should confirm him and at that point Marotta would call Allegri to Inter for sure…”
