The Portuguese coach is not giving up the Milan bench and will try everything to keep it: the dream is really big. Here’s what he said
Conceicao ancora al Milan: il messaggio del portoghese è inequivocabile (LaPresse) – MilanLive.it
However it goes, Sergio Conceiçao’s name will be written in Milan’s history books. The Portuguese coach, on the other hand, won a trophy, that Supercoppa Italiana, snubbed by many, which, however, made just about everyone rejoice. Beating Juventus in the semifinals and Inter in the final, in a comeback, is always nice.
Conceicao, however, would have liked to write even more important pages after that success. But Milan’s book is getting out of hand. Right now, in fact, no one would bet a dime on him staying on the bench, despite a contract expiring in 2026.
Conceicao also struggles to believe in his confirmation, but Champions League qualification winning the Coppa Italia would inevitably reshuffle the cards. The Portuguese, thus, hopes to drop a valuable pair, to make everyone believe again.
His team is back from two successes in a row, but it is the upcoming challenges that will tell us if Milan can really fight for the Champions League. “In 30 days we have played 9 games,” Sergio Conceicao said at the Coimbra Football Congress 2025 in front of 300 spectators. “We have not had time to train, which is extremely complicated and means that I have not had much chance to give my strong imprint to the team. After winning the Super Cup against Inter, we drew with Cagliari with an individual mistake, which can happen. Since then, new coaches have been approached by the club every day.”

“I wanted to go to one of the best leagues in the world. I dream and aim to win the Champions League and that is why I chose my current club,” Goal.com reports. “I knew the difficulties I would encounter, in an environment where I did not choose the roster, where I have no time to train and where I have an obligation to win. However, it is a historic club, which can give me a chance to get closer to one of the goals I have for my career, after winning so much in Portugal.”
