AC Milan Manager Search: Talks Ongoing, No Deal with Glasner Yet
Short overview
AC Milan continue their search for a new manager, with Oliver Glasner not yet secured despite reports. Matthias Jaissle and Rúben Amorim remain candidates.
AC Milan are progressing in their discussions to appoint a new manager, but contrary to some reports, no agreement has been reached with Oliver Glasner, according to sources close to the club. The Serie A side is still evaluating several candidates as they look to fill the head coach position.
Current Candidates
Alongside Glasner, the Rossoneri are considering Matthias Jaissle and Rúben Amorim as potential options. Jaissle, currently at Al-Ahli, has impressed in the Saudi Pro League, while Amorim has gained recognition for his work at Sporting CP in Portugal. Both are understood to be in the running for the role.
Background and Context
AC Milan parted ways with Stefano Pioli at the end of the 2023-24 season after a disappointing campaign that saw them finish second in Serie A, 19 points behind champions Inter Milan. The club is now seeking a new direction and has been linked with several managers across Europe. Glasner, who left Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer, has been a prominent name in the speculation, but sources indicate that talks are still at an early stage.
The search is part of a broader restructuring at the club, with the management aiming to build a squad capable of challenging for top honors domestically and in Europe. No timeline has been set for an appointment, and the club is expected to conduct a thorough process before making a decision.
