It will not be a simple summer of change that is brewing at Milan. There is already an air of revolution in Milan, and not only because of the rising temperatures. After weeks of rumors and denials, Sérgio Conceição’s farewell now seems to be a done deal. The Portuguese coach, who arrived with high expectations, has not convinced all the way and the club has decided to turn over a new leaf.
And now the race for a new coach officially begins, with a short list that has people dreaming and discussing: Massimiliano Allegri, Antonio Conte, Roberto De Zerbi and Maurizio Sarri are the hot names, each with a well-defined tactical identity and a profile that could give a different direction to the Rossoneri project. The choice will be crucial not only for the bench, but for the team’s entire technical future.
Milan, difesa da rifare: due alfieri ai saluti
The change in the bench will only be the tip of the iceberg. Milan’s summer soccer market will also – and above all – pass through exits. The most affected department will most likely be the defense, where the departures of Fikayo Tomori and Malick Thiaw seem to be written.

For Tomori, as early as last summer, Juventus had come down hard on the front row, ready to invest around 30 million. Now, the pressure is also coming from the Premier League, and in Via Aldo Rossi they are considering the right offer.
As for Thiaw, there is no shortage of interest: Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen are on him, two clubs that are unlikely to give up when they set their sights on a target. For Milan, this would be a heavy double transfer, but one that is necessary to rebuild with fresh ideas and fresh energy.
Chi arriva: colpo dalla Liga ma non solo, Moncada all’opera
In the meantime, although the announcement of the new sporting director is still missing, Geoffrey Moncada is moving under the radar and decisively. His pet project is called Christian Mosquera, a Spanish defender born in 2004 who amazed everyone with the Valencia shirt.

Milan has been following him for some time and in recent weeks contacts have intensified. The Spanish club is struggling to close for a renewal, and the Rossoneri want to take advantage of the situation to burn off competition – especially from England – that is becoming increasingly tight. Mosquera has already shown an uncommon personality, and Milan sees him as the new leader of the rearguard.
But the market will not stop there. Reinforcements are also needed on the exteriors and in midfield, with the possibility of new scenarios opening up in attack as well, depending on the choices of the new coach. It will not be easy to keep all the pieces of the puzzle together, but the idea is clear: Milan wants to get back to dictating the pace, in Italy and in Europe. And to do that, it takes courage. What, it seems, is not lacking in the upper echelons of Casa Milan.
